Re: mutiple ip setup
if i correctly understand what you've done, you have 4 different routers all using the same LAN subnet, and they're all connected together on the LAN side. Sounds like a recipe for a lockup.
what you really should do is get one router that supports multiple IPs. One recommendation would be a netopia 3000 or 4000 series, but there are others.
these routers have 1 WAN input from your dsl/cable modem and typically have a 4-port switch to support the LAN side.
you program them with all of your IP addresses. the router then allows you to map a specific ip address to a specific server on the lan side, while allowing all your computers on the lan side to communicate with each other.
check out ebay for some deals, buy a real router and then sell the others ...you'll probably come out ahead. |

i have been looking for an inexpensive router to handle multiple wan ip's
the Model # 3386-ENT can be less than $100.00 new
i use timbuktu every day so i like netopia
looking over the 3300 manual i see there can be a block of wan ip's and i guess also several blocks of wan ip's
do you know if it is true that there can be several blocks since my addresses are not continuos...?
i have now figured out that my problem started when i added a fourth router about 4 months ago.
a d-link dir-655 gigbit wireless N router.
since it has been a interment once every week or two problem i never attributed it to the d-link addition plus i love the wireless N
i just upgraded the firmware on the d-link and the problem got worse it appears to be a problem between one of the linksys routers (or a computer behind the router more likley) and the d-link i am getting a message such as this in the d-link log:
[INFO] Tue Jul 31 16:57:51 2007 Blocked incoming TCP packet from XX.XX.XX.XX:143 to XX.XX.XX.XX:59811 as FIN:PSH:ACK received but there is no active connection
edit:
these are wan addresses
this message is over and over again until as soon as i unplug the d-link wan every thing is fine.
i removed the actual addresses for posting but it is from a linksys wan ip to the d-link wan ip not sure exactly what is going on yet. any ideas......?
for now i am just using the d-link as a N access point on the lan side and all is well i think.

| i think the 3386 should be OK. Look in the manual for info about setting up ip maps. also look at the stuff on servers. there are probably several different ways you can handle your network. i do know that both the 9100 and the 4686 can handle this just fine...i used them in a similar situation where i had 4 non-contiguous ips. |
