### router fiddling

by nadir » Wed Jul 01, 2015 2:38 am

I got a problem like this:
Two routers
One of them connects to the ISP.
The other one is supposed to "extend" the range of the wireless signals to the "garden".
In the garden there is a LAN cable.
As of now i only got Windows machines here (there must be a refracta CD somewhere, i have to search it).
I plugged router2, the garden router, to the cable.
I plugged a cable from router2 to the laptop.
I got Internet acces, and ipconfig gives me a local IP from router2.
If i search via network-center, or however it's called, i don't see the wireless of the router2.
To make it slightly more clear:
router 1, house, internet access from ISP, 192.168.178.1
router2, garden, connection to router1 via cable, 192.168.1.1
ipconfig tells me i got IP 192.168.1.100
I can ping both routers.
I can access both routers via webinterface
router 2 is a cisco linksys, WRT160Nv2
So i herd u liek mudkip?

1) Give the second router an IP in the range of the first router
2) Disable dhcp in the second router
I forgot to restart the router, so it didn't get the new IP.
