Hi All
This follows on from an earlier thread - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18289679.
Essentially, we have our BT socket with BT business broadband upstairs - i.e the Business hub.
It is connected through the CAT5 running through the building to the downstairs reception area. They are quite far away, and so there is no conflict in terms of wi-fi etc etc.
I have a cable connected from the back of the BT router through the building CAT5 to the socket in the reception area. I then have a length of cat5 from the socket to the back of a hub we have just purchased - a netgear N600 router.
I have turned DHCP off as suggested, but am stuck as to what to enter as th IP address, subnet mask etc etc on the Netgear router.. Do I need to get these from the BT business hub ? There is nothing else on the network in terms of wired devices etc etc.
