DI-524 wireless internet problems

[earth4x]

Hi there!!!

I currently have a DI-704 that's routing the internet through all of my pcs in the house, and now I bought a wireless router because my laptop has a wireless card and I want internet access on it.. My question is : How can I make it so my DI-524 wireless router connects to the DI-704 and get internet access? because I can't seem to figure out how to do it

thanks

Must beat JackMDS from posting his own guide.....

The thing is.. I just don't get any internet access.. although I am connected to the wireless network

I tried disabling the DHCP on the wireless router but afterwards I can't connect to the homepage with all the info for the router

firewall?

run the network wizard?

can you ping the router?

You made sure to change the IP of the 2nd router right? should be something like 192.168.0.2-99
Also did you link the 2 routers together with a crossover cable to LAN ports on both?
If you use the WAN on the 2nd router you have messed up, if no lights come on your using the wrong cable, or a broken one.
When you disable DHCP if you ARE NOT getting an IP and getting out to the internet check subnets, if you cant static in an IP and get to the first or second router im not quite sure is wrong.

It seems like your issue is with the cabling or the IP/subnet, go check and make sure that you have done everything stated in the guide correctly.
