How to static route between two router with two WAN connection 1

[gknyc]

I have 2 WRT54G routers with one pointing to a cable and the other to dsl for internet. As a result both routers are running as gateways. I have the first one running as 192.168.0.x and the second router as 192.168.2.x. I would like to be able to ping/see PC cross subnet and if possible use the gateways as cross failovers. I have a domain controller with 2 network cards where both subnets are accessible though a static IP address.
I tried to utilize the static route options on the routers without much like and using the routing and remote access based static route setup on the Windows 2000 DC did not help. I'm not able to see across the subnets.
I would appreciate any help...

. am curious if you added two IPs to all clients
. am curious if on the DC you tried:

To clarify:
- Only server has 2 IP addresses one bound with each NIC.
- All workstations carry only one IP address. Basically all w/s will be pointing to the cable except one.

- I have already applied the Microsoft reg. change for TCP parameters and provided no help.

My current configuration requires me to have the WAN ports already allocated to the respective cable and dsl modems.

Current setup:

Cab. Rtr. Rtr. DSL
Mdm. <--> 1 <----> Swtch. <--> 2 <--> Mdm.
| 0.8 2.8 | |
|>>> DC <<<<| W/S (192.168.2.x)
|
W/S (192.168.0.x)

DHCP is only enabled on the DC. Not on Routers. Some static IP w/s and some dynamic with reservation defined on DC.

I do not think any static route entry will get you where you want to go. The Linksys does not support VLANs or inter-VLAN routing.

. if the issue is Windows networking, you could use the WINS server to resolve Windows Host names;

. if the issue is routing between the two subnets, you would need a bridge router between the two WRT54Gs. I think RIP2 enabled on all routers would likely work.

. If you can flatten the network to a single subnet, you would the only need to adjust the metrics of the Gateway on what is now the workstation on the second subnet.

. if the issue is failover, you should consider one of the several routers designed for this; e.g.:

Although you could add the IP of both routers to each workstation, and set using manual metrics which would be the default Gateway.
