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

Re: [H] Network issue
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 BINO Date: Sat, 24 Apr 2010 11:44:55 -0700 From: maccr...@gmail.com To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com Subject: Re: [H] Network issue I'd say that's likely part of it!

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.
