| Re: [Help Me] Setting up Belkin Pre-N as an AP on DGL-4100 said by Geo4  :The base IP addresses are obviously different so I would need to change the Belkin's AP IP to an address within the 192.168."0".xxx range to match the DLink 4100...Correct? Correct
said by Geo4 :So how do I set the Belkin's IP address to so as to avoid conflict with the DLinks DHCP server addresses of 100 to 199 and still stay within the "neighborhood" of the 4100's administration.. do I use one of the auto assigned IP's? Assign it an unused address within 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.99 or 192.168.0.200 - 192.168.0.254. Avoid the range being assigned by the DHCP server.
Unless you've assigned something else to this address, 192.168.0.2 would be an excellent choice.

| Re: [Help Me] Setting up Belkin Pre-N as an AP on DGL-4100 Thnx FC,
I think I see whats going on. As long as the IP address stays within the 192.168."0".x but out of the 100-199 range its all good. Is that what the subnet 255.255.255.0 is doing"..establishing the neighborhood for 192.168.0.x?
Now if i need to access the Belkin for admin purposes that "new" 192.168."0".x address is what i would type into the browser?
Also would I need to "reserve" the MAC/IP address of the Belkin on the D-Link?
I take it i would patch the WAN port of the Belkin into a LAN port of the D-Link...interstingly enough its currently patched LAN to LAN and ripping along but occasinally steps on the connection. | |

No, since you gave it a range outside of the D-Link's DHCP address range, it's a safe address and does not need to be reserved.

In the Belkin's Bridged mode, you may use either the WAN or a LAN port of the Belkin -- it does not matter since all of the ports are bridged together and behave identically.

1 edit | Belkin bombs When I enable the Belkin to go in AP mode and use the 192.168.0.2 address as the new IP for my DLink LAN the Belkin just Bombs. It does not respond to anything even when its disconnected from the DLINK and I'm hooked up to it directly via a laptop.
I end up having to do a hard reset on the Belking to get the Belkins default IP addy back. It seems so simple yet its getting quite cranky. | |
