use Linksys WRT54G as access point off of Firebox Edge?

Jul 17, 2005 3 Replies

I've got my firebox as 192.168.111.1 and I gave the Linksys 192.168.111.5. I still can't access the Linksys.



When I hook directly up to it I can access it.



Do I need to put it in bridge mode or something?



Can I use it as an access point?



Thanks.

I'll give it another shot then. Since somebody has done it, obviously I've just set something up wrong.

Thanks.

Bryce.

All I did was disable DHCP on the BEFW11S4 v1 router, set the device IP to

192.168.111.2, took the router out of *gateway* and put it into *router* mode, configured the router to use static the IP set-up pointing to the WG at 192.168.111.1 -- not using DHCP setup that would be to obtain IP from the WG for the router, and connected it to a LAN port on my WG Firebox III SOHO 6. I could access the Linksys router at 192.168.111.2 with the browser.

The Linksys just became a wire/wireless AP *switch*.
