Set you wireless on it's own subnet in front of your other router. The subnet should be different from your current subnet. If your current subnet is 192.168.0.0, the make the LAN subnet 192.168.1.0/24. Have it receive the signal from your DSL/CABLE modem. Assign an IP to your router/firewall. Allow the wireless router to run dhcp for the subnet in a range of 100+ Leave your current router setup as usual but set it's WAN IP as the IP you assigned it in your wireless. This gives you a firewalled wired network and still gives you flexibility to have ad hoc wireless connections. Of course, you could have a MAC access list and WEP encryption. Or am I missing something here? Ken CAD 2 CAM _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
