Question : How to configure a DSL modem for connection to a router
|
|
I'm trying to configure a DLink DSL-300T adsl modem with one ethernet port for connecting to the WAN port of a DLink DI-624+ wireless router. The broadband connection works fine without the router inline, and connecting to a hub which connects to 2 PC's. I think with the router inline I need to somehow pass-through the IP address assigned by the ISP to the router. I've tried the following setups without success.
Setup 1
Modem:
ip=192.168.1.1
subnet=255.255.255.0
DHCP=dissabled
Router:
ip=192.168.1.2
subnet=255.255.255.0
DHCP=enabled
WAN=static ip 192.168.1.1
PCs: default gateway=192.168.1.1
Setup 2:
Modem: set to bridged mode
Router: WAN set to dynamic ip
PCs: default gateway=192.168.1.2
Setup 3:
Modem: set back to PPP0A mode
Router: WAN set to static with ip 192.168.1.2
Setup 4:
Router: changed static WAN ip to 192.168.1.1
Most helpful article I've found so far was at http://www.zensupport.co.uk/forum/shwmessage.aspx?forumid=26&messageid=228 however I notice I haven't followed it exactly because in the thread the LAN addresses are 192.168.0.x rather than 192.168.1.x .
I'm hoping to talk to someone on here with some practical router setup experience, I'm not looking for lots of url links to more reading matter please.

Oops...musta posted that one too laste into the partynight....no WAN on the hub haha...should have been:
I'd go:
DHCP Server
WAN: ISP IP
LAN:192.168.1.1
_____ _____ _____
------------| MOD|-------------| HUB |-------------| LAN |-----PC1 192.168.1.2
-------- -------- --------
| |______PC2 192.168.1.3
|
|
|
_|__
| WR |___/\/\/\___/\/\/\____PC Neighbour 192.168.2.2
------
WAN:192.168.1.2
LAN:192.168.2.1
DHCP Server
and use the wireless on your laptiop on the neighbor's network if you didn't need filesharing on your LAN for the laptop.
