Take the un-used router; Go into its configuration; Disable the Internal DHCP server; Verify that the router does not have an IP address which already belongs to any other device in your LAN (if it does, change it to something else. best something on a different netmask altogether...); Then, disconnect one of the devices on your currently active 4 port router; Connect a cable between the now vacant port to one of the LAN (note: NOT the WAN!) ports of the un-used router. Then you can use the extra vacant ports of the previously un-used router as an extension to your existing network. (The 4 ports in any common router are actually a switch...)
Thanks! This is just the kind of elegant solution I was looking for. Geoff. _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
