so I am now moving back into my place that got burgled.... and now I cannot remember the settings I used to make it work.
I have 2 routers.
Router1: Sky hub
Router2: my Cisco Linksys E4200 router.
I want my sky hub to be giving DHCP. Thats fine, and the Cisco router has the DHCP disabled.
sky hub IP Address is changed to the 20.168.x.x range
Cisco router IP Address is changed to the 10.0.x.x range (Dont ask).
I set the Cisco to use the Static IP and giving it the following settings:
IP Address: 20.168.1.1 (Sky hub)
Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 20.168.1.1 (sky hub)
DNS1: 20.168.1.1 (sky hub.. that is what it reports)
So here is the problem:
the computer is connected to the cisco router but does not appear to be giving the DHCP IP from the sky hub, but only its own range of IP's in the 10.0.x.x range even though I disabled DHCP on the cisco router.
The router address of the cisco is 10.0.1.1 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
any ideas where I am going wrong?
I want to connect the computer to the cisco router because not only due to the wireless but importantly has a 1GBPS port where as the sky router does not.
