I'm trying to share my internet connection and LAN using two routers.
Router1: D-link (not wireless) - primary router
Router2: Netgear MR814 (wireless) - secondary router
Goal: Connect cable modem to the D-link and use its LAN for the wired computers. Then, use the Netgear for wireless and to connect another wired computer.
Problem: Need to figure out how to see the internet from the Netgear router. The LAN lights do not light up where I have the routers connected via a cable.
Right now I have a crossover cable connecting wired LAN ports 1 and the Netgear and 3 on the D-link (do I need the crossover cable, or only a regular?).
I'm thinking that I need 3 LAN IP's on the Netgear: wireless computer, wired computer, and link between the routers. Is that correct?
I disabled DHCP on the Netgear and assigned IP addresses out of the range of the D-link's range. I set up the Netgear router IP as a DMZ host.
So does anyone know what settings I need to change to get the Netgear to see the internet?
