Re: [modem/router] How to access 6100G's interface while connect

SK firmware is pretty much a stock netgear firmware with an extra menu to enable/disable reporting module and enable/disable bridge mode.

assigning 2nd IP to my tomato's wan port isn't going to help here since SK is sitting in front of it.

Since the netgear uses 192.168.1.1 as it's ip address
The westell needs it's ip address changed to 192.168.1.253

After that is done

Connect the netgear internet port to a netgear lan port
Connect the westell ethernet port to a netgear lan port

The netgear internet port and the westell ethernet port will find each other and allow the pppoe to work

While I know how to get into my Westell: If I followed your directions, would a Public Static IP work too?

Router config(s), right now..

a) Westell 6100F (with only one LAN port) at 192.168.1.1 (in bridge mode).

b) Linksys WRT54G running tomato firmware at 192.168.0.1

Thanks.

What I posted is only for dsl that uses pppoe
The number of ethernet ports on the modem does not matter
The modem and router must have unique ip's that are in the same subnet

Ok.

Why only for PPPoE (Not for DHCP or Static Public IP) ?

Can you go more techical about how that works ?

Thanks.

Because pppoe traffic cannot mingle with tcp/ip and dhcp traffic
