Re: Will this cause any problems?
Okay. Then just use it as you are doing, and it should be fine. |

Thank you for the reply. Basically all the Belkin needs to do is offer wireless connections to the customers. |

That should not cause problems, though it depends on what you want to do.
Your LAN computers won't be able to initiate connections with your Wireless computers. That's because of the different subnets.
If you need the wireless systems to be on the same subnet as the LAN systems, that should be possible. You would need to:
unplug the WAN connection to the Belkin.
using a LAN connection to the Belkin (the Belkin LAN, that is), change the Belkin IP address to, say, 192.168.68.200 - or something on the 192.168.68.* subnet. Also disable LAN DHCP for the Belkin. Then connect the Belkin to your switch with a LAN port (Belkin LAN port, that is). You'll have to reboot the Belkin at some stage. With those changes, the WiFi systems should now share the same LAN as your other systems. You won't be using some of the router features of the Belkin.

| Today I purchased a Belkin Wireless N router. I have a T1 installed. The T1 connects to a 16 port switch. I ran a cable from the 16 port switch to the "WAN" port on the Belkin Wireless N router. My LAN uses 192.168.68.x and the Belkin uses 192.168.2.x for wireless connections. Everything seems to be working but I just want to make sure I am not going to run into problems.
Thanks |
