DIR 655 - Connecting Two Routers Together And Keeping Networks Separate
Jul 31, 2012
I have two dir655 routers that are connected. The second router is not setup as a wireless access point, but I am open to that if it will work. The second one is going to serve as a public wifi in a business, with a separate SSID. The first one is going to handle the local business network, with its NAS and printers. How would I prevent the public wifi from accessing the first router?
I have tried the guest wifi partition setting, however it still allows access to the lan devices on the first router. It does partition with the second router properly though, but thats not worth anything to me cause there are no lan devices on the 2nd router.
Would it work right if I turn the 2nd router into a access point, disable the dhcp server, and set it up with the guest wifi partition?

I have a network set up between two buildings. Each building has its own internet connection and DHCP server, building A using an RV180W router and building B using a linksys product. A WDS bridge has been set up between the two buildings using two wireless access points.The goal here is to allow clients in either building to be assigned an IP from their respective DHCP server (and thereby use that building's internet connection), yet still access network resources (eg file storage, printer, etc.) in the other building should the need arise.I have tried to set this up by having the RV180 assign IP's in the range 192.168.0.xxx to its clients in building A, and the linksys to assign IP's in the range 192.168.1.xxx in building B. I have enabled Vlan 1 and Vlan 2 on the RV180 - vlan 1 runs a DHCP server for building A. Vlan 2 runs no DHCP server and is directly connected to the WDS bridge to building B. Inter Vlan routing is enabled on both Vlan 1 and Vlan 2.On the WDS bridge modules, ive assigned both static IP's in the 192.168.1.xxx range (vlan 2 range). I've specified their dns and default gateway as 192.168.1.2 which is the static address for the RV180 in vlan 2.From a PC in vlan 1, I can ping and access the webgui for the WDS bridge modules which are in Vlan 2. However, i cannot ping any other computer in Vlan 2 which is set to accept a dynamic IP from the DHCP server operating in Building B. I assume this is because the WDS modules point to the RV180 as their default gateway and dns server, while the clients that have accepted a dynamic IP from the building B DHCP point to that device as their default gateway and DNS.I am considering trying changing the DNS and default gateway on the building B side of the WDS bridge to the building B values to see if that works, but am concerned i would lose all connectivity to the webgui from building A if i do that.

I'm an architect working in a small office that happens to be home to two seperate businesses, each with their owner network. However, these two networks want to use the same large format printer. I recently purchased the RV180W since the Cisco representative told me i would be able to connect both networks to the router so they can both see the printer without seeing the files on each of the other networks. We simply want to share the same printer.
Network 1:
192.168.4.1
Network 2
192.168.2.1
Large Format Printer
192.168.4.151
Network 1 has the RV180W as it's router with three gigabit switches. Computers and peripherals are connected to the three switches. 1 port open on the last switch.
I want to configure the RV180W to see both 192.168.4.1 and 192.168.2.1
What settings need to be modifed in order to accomplish this? Do I need more equipment? Is it easier to put a wireless card in one of the computers on the 192.168.2.1 network and then set it to see the 192.168.4.1 network?

Using a Linksys E2000 and Linksys WRT54GL (both flashed to most recent firmware), I am trying to set up Network "A" and Network "B" on one modem. I do not want either A or B to be able to see each other for security purposes. Both are secured networks for the wireless connections and have different SSIDs.
After online research, and the inability to find my exact question answered, this is what I did and I'd like to know if I'm missing anything to keep A and B completely separate. Or, if I've done anything that will cause any problems on my network. [code]
I disabled the ability to change settings using wireless connection on both routers.

I am trying to set up two routers so that I can offer free wireless connectivity via three AP's in three adjoining rooms on a first floor and secured wireless and wired network connectivity in upstairs offices. The setup is like this:
Verizon DSL connectivity..static IP
The gateway modem/router is a Verizon DLink DSL 2750B with three ports connecting to three wired Access Points in three first floor adjoining rooms, and the 4th port connecting to a Cisco E1200 (wireless and ethernet router) located next to the Verizon Dlink. I would like the Verizon DLink to give open wireless connectivity via the access points and also connect to the adjacent E1200 router.
I would like the Cisco E1200 to offer secured wireless and ethernet connectivity to the upstairs offices. (connecterd to the Cisco E1200 is a 24 port Netgear switch.)I have spent considerable time talking with Verizon and Cisco/Linksys but have not been successful in just how to set this up.A former tech actually did have this setup but for what ever reason the settings were reset to factory defaults with no written record as to the necessary settings.

Play Max N600 HD (F7D4301) Dual network operation - on behind Belkins firewall. I have just changed the structure of my network for reasons of additional services being added. I now have in the front room the ADSL modem connected to a switch and 2 PC's. The switch is also pbugged into an ethernet plug in the wall which feeds to the other end of the house where the Belkin router is. I have all devices working on the internet correctly. The issue is getting access between the two networks and the devices on the two networks. I have added the ip addresses of the PC's to the router's LAN/Static Route, but that didn't work. The network in front room (after ADSL Modem is 192.168.1.x and after Belkin router it is 192.168.2.x. Is there a way I can allow access between the two networks between devices?

I have 2 PCs at home. Lets name one of them as PC 1 which has two onboard LAN Ports. Now, PC1 has to connect to PC 2, just a home network for easy transfer on files and stuff, and it also has to connect to the internet via a network. The problem is both of them use static ip and when I tried configuring PC 1, it allows only one of the connections to remain active. I simply get an error otherwise saying "Multiple Gateways" will cause conflict and I will be stuck with only one connection. After much study I "somehow" connected both. I vaguely remember using the "route" command in cmd to achieve this. But now, I am getting an error when I try to access PC 2. My Internet is working fine.I am not network savvy at all. run both these connections from PC 1. I should add that I can in no way modify/change/or do anything else to my internet network since it is out of my control. I can do anything, however, for my Home Lan with PC 2. I run windows 7. Both the connections are wired, by the way.

I would like to set up two separate networks from one internet connection(modem), with the goal being to have a public network(Network A) that would have a small server on it, and then having a second secured network(Network B) that would have my personal computers on it. And both networks having connection to the internet. (The idea being that if the server somehow became compromised that my personal computers and their data would be safe)I have done some research and found that many people claim this can be done with just two or three routers, but none of them go into any detail about how to configure the routers. Below are the physical setups of the two options that I have come up with in my research, which if either would you recommend? And how would I configure each of the routers?
--------------
Modem/router 1 (Network A public)
--Internet-in WAN port
--port 1 to WAN of router 2-------------l
--port 2 server

I have two subnets at my home and both run through my Cisco router. One is my private LAN with access to the Internet, ie your standard home network. The other is a semi-public network that I share with friends through an encrypted GRE tunnel system(DMVPN) over the Internet. I have a server on that semi-public network and I can access my friend's servers from my server, but not from my main PC on my private network.
Is there a way I can access both networks from only my main pc using two nic's?

how I can setup two separate networks on a Westell 327w modem/router. I know this question has been asked to death and I've utilized the search function, but I still don't know how to make this work. I have a computer that I plan on using for important business and my sibiling has my other computer that he uses for gaming and downloading stuff. His computer is connected wirelessly to the Westell 327w. My computer has no internet access at this point. I would like to have both connected wirelessly to the internet, but keep them completely separate and as secure as possible, as he downloads some questionable things.

I have two separate network with their own internet access as shown below I want to keep all setting of the left network unchanged. I can change the IPs and setting of the right side network.I want to be able to access all devices of the two network from my computer but in the same time the two network work as usual with no problems ( the same when they are sperate).One option is to set the LAN of modem 2 to 192.168.2.2 and connect one of the LAN port to LAN port of the Mkrotik router. Set the WAN of my private home router as
IP: 192.168.2.100
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.2.2
Home router LAN: 192.168.3.1
Is their another method to connect the two network and keep the same setting for the network on the left side?

I'm new at this stuff and very stumped. I have one WAP with multiple SSIDs that support VLAN ID (for a private and guest wireless network) and a managed switch that supports tag or port based VLAN ID. How do I set up the switch so that the networks are separate, but can still reach their own routers to get on the Internet? In case details are necessary, the WAP is a Cisco Aironet 1130AG and the switch is a Netgear FS750T2

We are a small office currently running a regular network (9 wired, 2 wireless) and also using the "guest" feature (7 wireless) on a Linksys E2000. We have a switch to connect our wired equipment to the E2000. If "A" is our regular network, and "B" is our guest network, is it possible to have 2 routers on 1 cable modem and still prevent network "A" from seeing Network "B" and vice versa?? We are looking to do this because we will soon be exceeding the maximum guest users (10) allowed by the E2000. We have another Linksys router in storage, I think it is a WRT54G, that we would use if this is possible.

With traditional classful subnetting, the same number of host bits is used to designate the subnet ID for all the resulting subnetworks. This type of subnetting always results in a fixed number of subnets and a fixed number of hosts per subnet. For this reason, this is known as fixed-length subnetting. The decision about how many host bits to use for the subnet ID is a big planning decision. There are two considerations when planning subnets: the number of hosts on each network, and the number of individual local networks needed. The table for the subnet possibilities for the 192.168.1.0 network shows how the selection of a number of bits for the subnet ID affects both the number of possible subnets and the number of hosts that can be in each subnet. One thing to keep in mind is that in all IPv4 networks, two host addresses are reserved: the all-0s and the all-1s. An address with all 0s in the host portion of the address is an invalid host address and usually refers to the entire network or subnetwork. An address with all 1s in the host portion is used as the local network broadcast address. When a network is subnetted, each subnet contains an all-0s and an all-1s host address that cannot be used for individual host addresses.

1. I currently have a Comcast Business Class Gateway, Cisco 2100 Series WLAN Controller and a Cisco ASA 5505 all connected together to supply LAN and WLAN internet connections on my network.
2. I also have a Card Access Security System on it owns network. It currently does not have internet access.
I would like to put my security system on the internet so that I can support it remotely. To do this, it has to be on a firewalled internet connection.Can I put the two networks on my ASA 5505 and keep them seperate? I don't want to provide a path into the Security System through my current LAN & WLAN. But I do need a frewalled internet connection on my Security System. I am trying to avoid purchasing a seperate firewall.

We have 2 separate networks here, 1 for data (192.168.0.x) and 1 for VOIP phones (192.168.3.x).
I need them to both be connected to different ports on a switch (Cisco SG 300 10 port managed switch) which is then linked to another switch (Cisco Catalyst 2960 48 port switch). Then on this 2960 switch I want the link to be split back into the 2 separate networks. I think that I need to create 2 separate VLANs and assign them to different ports.

We have a two separate businesses in the same building who will both need access to shared resources and the same internet connection. They will need to remain on separate subnets and cannot communicate directly to each other. The current switch is a Cisco ESW-520-48P and we are looking at purchasing an SG-300-20P for the new business moving in. Heres how we envisage setting it up:
ESW-520 will host Company A's network. Workstations, servers etcSG-300 will have two VLANS. VLAN1 will host all Company B's network. Workstations, servers etc. VLAN2 will host the shared resources such as printers. The internet gateway is a UNIX based system with 3 NICS. 2 NICS are taken up by ADSL connections while the other NIC is the LAN, which would connect to VLAN2 on the SG-300. We would like to define which ADSL connection to route through depending on which subnet traffic is originating. The ESW-520 will need access to the shared resources and internet gateway on VLAN2 on the SG-300.

I don't sound like a complete noob but anyway here it goes....I have a small business and work on my network myself. I am a novice but do enjoy the challenge. What I have in the closet is Comcast Business Class cable into a SMC 8014 router/ gateway with 4 lan ports. One of the ports goes into a ethernet switch and then those are fed into the panel for the corresponding 7 offices. The other lan port I connected a netgear n750 wireless router The Lan network is on a separate network form the wireless network because I set the Netgear n750 Wireless Router's DHCP server to on. I did this to keep people off of the local network. We have meetings with as many as 30 members and they use the wireless in varying degrees with no problems thus far. My problem now is that I think I have set it up wrong because I need to connect to my network printers and work-group computers with my wireless laptop ....problem is they are on different networks or subnets. They all have the same public IP of course but 2 seperate DHCP private networks...Is the term "different subnets"???
What I am looking to do is change the Router to an Access point or whatever works....... that grants access to the internet only for visiting members and........ Wireless access to my lan and internet for my laptop's Would making the Wireless Router an Access Point by turning off the DHCP sever and creating guest accounts be the right choice. Or is there a way to connect to my LAN through the wireless network without making this change.

We have three computers (one of which acts as a file server) plugged directly into an internal office network. Then we have another such connection leading to the WAN port of a router which shares a single connection among another 5 or so computers & laptops. So the WAN connection is providing internet access AND access to the file server.
Since upgrading to a new router, it is now not possible to "see" the file server from the computers connected to the router, although the internet can still be accessed without a hitch. This has now become infuriating as I've spent several hours changing all possible router & IP settings to no avail.

I've been looking around for more information on this topic but I couldn't find quite the specifics I'm looking for.In the most basic text, I want to connect two networks together via the internet and VPN. I currently have two Windows 2k8 Servers housed at both locations. I've tried to do as much as I could myself but clients on both sides cannot access each other.I set-up the Remote Router function on both Servers and connected them but I still cannot ping or access any of the remote resources on that network.

I'm having a problem viewing devices on my home network. To better explain I created this diagram of my Home Network below.I have a Cisco VPN Router and connected to that I have a Netgear WRN 1000v2 Router & Linksys WRT54G2v1 Router. I used to have my home network connected to only one router and I was able to see and connected to other devices. Now my networks are separated, I think it has something to do with subnet masking and the IP addresses on the routers.

I have a 192.168.1.xxx network connected to Verizon FIOS via Actiontec MOCA / router.I also have a 192.168.15.xxx network connected to Comcast via Motorola VT2442 router (used for Vonage) and a Motorola SB6121 cable modem. Each network has it's own gigabit switch connected to each router. The two networks are physically separated but switches and routers are physically side by side.What is the best configuration to allow devices on 192.168.1.xxx network to communicate with devices on the 192.168.15.xxx network (share printers, NAS, etc), but still have each network served by it's respective ISP, and each device still get it's dhcp, dns, gateway, etc from each respective router?

So basically I need to hook up a HP LaserJet P2015 to a business and home network. LaserJet P2015 user guide. I would like to keep the printer's ip static so it will stay the same on each network individually. am using a business router (Linksys RV120 W Wirless-N VPN Firewall) with two VLAN (business and home network) built using this router. Also I have two access points both being used to expand this signal through out the building, but not as an extender. They are two Linksys WAP54G access points. The access points are used to expand the home network, and not the business network.

I'm trying to set up 2 separate networks in my home, both of which have access to the internet through a single ISP.I have set up my networks using 2 routers as described in the "Version 2" scenario found here: url...The problem is, a computer connected to the LAN side of Router 2 is able to ping and map shared folders on computers connected to the LAN side of Router 1. According to the writeup (last paragraph), this should not be the case.I have been over the setup multiple times to ensure it is per the writeup but each time, I am able to ping and map.Is there some additional router/computer settings that I may be missing?FWIW, here's my take on what is happening (with the ping): When a computer on the LAN side of Router 2 (submet 192.168.1.x) does a ping to a computer on the LAN side of Router 1 (subnet 192.168.0.x), Router 2 sends the request to its Default Gateway (since it's a different subnet).Router 1 however, recognizes this as its LAN side subnet and forwards the request to that computer. The ping response is then routed back from Router 1 to Router 2.

I have 3 Macs (OS 10.6.8) and one PC (Windows 7) at work. They are all connected to the company network for internet and access to shared network drives.The computers are used for media (mostly video) production and we need to move large files between the computers easily and quickly. The current network (company wide) is slow and unreliable, so I would like to create a separate network for these four computers and have them connected to both the company network and the office room network. Each computer already has two network ports and I have a router I can use.

Basically, the issue I am having is we have a class b network ID of 172.16. We had a new phone system installed last year which needed to be on an isolated network as our switches do not have QoS on them. Plus they are quite bad...
Some genius decided to use the same network ID on the new phone system as our current network but they are totally isolated networks.
This is where my laziness comes into play... We use a laptop connected to the phone system's network to connect to configure the phones etc but I would like to do this at my desk. So what I have done is configured a wireless access point on the phone systems network so I can connect to it on my laptop to theoretically make changes to the phone system on my PC, but also staying connected to our network for obvious reasons... I do have some networking knowledge, and I am assuming the routes are going to be completely wrong because of the same network ID issue not allowing me to connect to the phone system on my laptop. But I am not sure if I can add a static route to resolve this.
