Could it be that you are double NATing !

I'd say that's likely part of it!

My problem with that is AFAIK, he has other devices on the LAN that are working 
fine (getting NAT'ed to the outside, though I may be wrong about that), whereas 
it's just the TV devices that don't work-the difference with them is that 
they're new which makes me think it's something else, but it's too hard to 
tell-there just isn't enough information to really figure out what's going on 
w/o looking at a Visio and the router configs and doing an actual 
troubleshooting session...though I keep coming back to routing issues (which 
could be NAT issues too).

 

At this point (w/o doing the actual troubleshooting session) I'd say that you 
just collapse your networks into one flat 192.168.1.x (you don't need multiple 
networks anyway-not like you're firewalling and enforcing security policies b/w 
them anyway, are you?) and then you'll be fine as the LAN and WAN will be the 
same network and you'll get access to everything you need that way.  It's how I 
have mine set up at home! :p

I do need them, because I have employees, friends and family using my 
WAP that I don't want to even see my LAN. The TV and the BRD I can 
solve most of the problem just by plugging the media devices switch 
into the WAN, because they don't need to access my LAN, but the WD live does.


For the time being I have done this, although I am going to try and 
forward the TV devices IP number to the WAN as a gateway and see what happens.
