Thanks Peter (and Stephen); I feel better now :-)
To be fair to Ralph, he did clarify his message after I'd expressed my first
confusion and I did miss his original 'during' and his first 'unplugging'.
I'm afraid that my brain seems a bit slow to assimilate information these
days.
Anyway, I'll resume testing tomorrow afternoon, as I'm busy tomorrow morning.
I've had a few ideas of my own that might simplify the overall problem, once
I've got the RPi Routing function to work.
I had a look at your drawing, but not the configs yet.
My Home network has a main wireless AdSL router 192.168.1.1 and a remote
old ADSL wireless router upstairs of a different make. This has IP
192.168.1.2, same Netmask and ADSL not configured. But I have access to
everything- there is no separation of devices. The main router handles
DHCP and is configured as the Gateway to give access to the outside
world. DNS is supplied by outside resource.
If I could set up a VLAN on my main router I could separate the remote
router from the rest of the network. Unfortunately this free TalkTalk
router looks like it doesn't support VLANs. Does yours? Would a VLAN
give sufficient security?
I am now grappling mentally with your firewall and Ip configuration, but
it's hurting my brain and time to make supper.
Cheers,
peterM.
