USG200 IP address problem

So, in a nutshell you need to configure a LAN on the Zyxel unit to have a structure of 192.168.0.x but NOT have the lanip of the zyxel on the lan to be 192.168.0.1 as the rosewill is stuck with that LANIP. In other words setup the LANIP of the zyxel router for that lAN to be different.

Not sure, Ive never had a router lanip that was not x.1 ??

That's about it. If I configure the repeater with an address e.g. of 192.168.10 or even leave it as its default simply changing the security level to match the ZyXEL then the ZyXEL will not see the wireless repeater. I can show this by going into the Dish DVR and it shows no internet connection. Of course, if I hook the DVR to Ethernet then it instantly shows a connection and I do not even have to get it to check for a connection as it simply does an auto-DHCP discovery.

So I need to have an IP address that will place both the USG200 and the repeater so that they 'see' each other.

If you need any clarification, let me know. My back pain due to severe spinal arthritis is rather high today and I may be even less coherent than usual.

The Manuel for the RNX-EasyN4 suggests that you can assign an IP address of your choice .... Suggest you do that.

Very sorry to read that you suffer from spinal arthritis -- THAT is a real PAIN.

Thanks for the kind words. I am using a 75ug (micrograms) transdermal fentanyl patch to handle most of the pain. Depending on the research studies available, fentanyl is 300-1000 times stronger than morphine so that gives one an idea of the sort of pain I get every day.

In addition to the OA, I also get pain due to some congenital neurological problems which put pressure on the brain stem and spinal cord nerves even though I had neurosurgery to try and alleviate the situation so it does get interesting every so often.

I will try to change the Rosewill repeater as you suggested. Thanks for the info.

All the best,

Mike

Thanks Brano, as that seems to be the simplest solution to just change the USG 200 to match the repeater.

I'll post back with the results.

All the best,

Thanks, Brano that worked. I set LAN1 to 192.168.0.x and it connected fine.

All the best,
