I may be showing some ignorance here, but I'm struggling and don't even know if I can do what I want to do with what I have.
I've got cable modem service at home. Attached to the cable modem is a Netgear ProSafe VPN Firewall (http://www.netgear.com/products/details/FVS318.php). It's setup as a dhcp server and is serving up IP addresses to 2 PCs, 1 server and a Netgear wireless-B router (http://www.netgear.com/products/details/MR814.php). "Attached" to the wireless router are a laptop and a PC.
The firewall is set up internally as 192.168.0.1 and is serving up IP addresses in the 192.168.0.2-50 range. The address 192.168.0.99 has been reserved for the router based on the mac address of the router.
Attached to one of the PCs attached to the firewall is a printer which is shared with the other PCs attached to the firewall. The printer is not a network printer, just a shared printer.
The wireless router is set up internally as 192.168.1.1 and is serving up IP addresses in the 192.168.1.51-99 range.
I want the devices attached to the wireless router to have visibility to the devices attached to the firewall, namely be able to print and retrieve files from the server, and I'm having no success... any help in how to configure the wireless router to just act as an access point and not serve up IP addresses and just let the firewall box do that would really be appreciated... at least, I think that's what I want to do....
Thanks!
Geoff
