Configure Cisco SOHO 91 router

Forgive me if I am mis-understanding.

But when you say "Straight Routing and no PPP in the same sentence, you confuse me.

Routing happens at layer 3 and PPP at layer 2.

You have to have some sort of layer 2 encap. Are you wanting HDLC ... Cisco's default?

What type of a WAN connection is it?

I'm not so good in network, so I don't really understand what you mean, like "3 and PPP at layer 2". My internet connection is that a Bridge connect to my Cisco SOHO 91's Internet port (E1), and I have to conifgure the E1 port to have a Static IP, Subnet Mask, Gateway IP, and DNS server. Hope you understand me!!

Well ... I've never configured a SOHO 91 ... but if this device uses an IOS similar to the larger access level routers like the 2600 series ... then you would do the following

Router>en Router#conf t Router(config)#int (lan interface number) (for example e0 or f0/0) Router(config-if)#ip address 1.2.3.4 255.255.255.0 (or whatever your mask is) Router(config-if)#no shut

then you would do the same with the WAN interface.

hope this helps. mr

Thanks for that! And how to set the Primary and Secondary DNS, and Gateway? Thanks again!

why are you setting a dns and gateway?

what does the topology look like?

mr

A wireless client bridge connect to my router's Internect port (e1), and then all the PCs connect to the router's Local port (e0). Is that information enought?

can you make a default route to go out the internet port?

then set your SOHO's e0 as the workstation's gateway.

just a thought
