Re: securely mixing WEP and WPA - two routers required?

Thanks for the replies. Pete, I wonder if you could help me understand this a bit better...

1. I thought the idea of a router was that it could join two different network segments - have I misunderstood?

2. Following on from that assumption: if router 1 was 192.168.1.x and router 2 was 192.168.2.x, how could the devices on the second network see the devices on the first?

3. Are you saying that all I need to do is swap the routers round? I.e. my ADSL router should serve the less secure network, and my second (WPA) router can hang off a LAN port on the first router?

4. If so, would the second router be on a separate subnet as I described above?
