Setting up a Linksys router to expand the network

Dec 01, 2005 0 Replies

Hi



I have a PC which has a wireless dongle in it I have a Linksys WRT54G which I want to attach a network printer to (jet direct card) I also have a Linksys WAG54G which is downstairs next to the phone line for the broadband connection. The signal from the PC to the WAG is quite unpredictable ad so I would like to use the WRT to access the network (its in the same room as the PC) and for the WRT to then talk to the WAG.



I am trying to get the WRT and the WAG to talk to eachother but am not having much success at the moment.



I have set the WAG up as the DHCP server and the WRT to a static IP. The dongle also has a static IP. Both routers have the same network name and are on the same channel (11).



Is there any othe information I need to give you please (never done this before!!!).



Thanks
