| [Wired] Help Needed - Comcast business router to Linksys WRT54G Hello all!
I recently switched to the Comcast business service, as I got a great deal for 3 years on the product. Before the switch, I had the personal account which gave me a Comcast modem, which I had going to my Linksys WRT54G, and all was well. My IP for the router was 192.168.1.1, and my static IP's went up from there.
With the business account, they installed a new router, with a 10.1.10.1 IP address. Currently, I just have the Linksys plugged directly into the first outgoing port of the Comcast router, and my wireless still works.
My problem: The pc's wired into the Comcast router cannot "see" the wireless machines. The wireless machines can see the wired servers. I need for the wired pc's to "see" and communicate with the wireless machines, as I need to do some port forwarding for a web server, email server, etc.
What do I need to do to do this? Do I change the IP address of the Linksys to a 10.1.10.x IP and change my wireless IP addresses? Can this be done at all?
Please let me know! I appreciate your time in reading this. : ) | |

1 edit | Re: [Wired] Help Needed - Comcast business router to Linksys WRT Assign your WRT an address in the subnet of your SMC (aka comcast garbage router), and disable dhcp on the WRT. Then make the connection to your WRT through one of its LAN ports (instead of the WAN port.
Or just get comcast to provide a plain modem, like the SB5100. And if they tell you they cant do that, tell them bullsh1t. It can be done, as I have done it with several clients who had that same SMC backdoored pile of junk.
