Hey everyone -
I have 2 privates subnets : one (192.168.0.0) for my wire network and Internet, and the other (192.168.1.0) for the wireless. I want to setup a wireless network with a linksys WRT54GS router and have access to Internet.

SHEMA

[blue](X)[/blue]-------------------------[blue](X)[/blue]__________________[blue](())[/blue]
Router A (wireless) Router B (wire) Internet
192.168.1.0 192.168.0.0



I already set the configuration on the router and the communication is established with the wireless network. My problem is when I'm trying to browse.

From the administrative tool of the WRT54GS I can easily ping or traceroute, for example (64.233.161.104), without any problems. BUT on the DOS console (cmd), if I try to ping google or whatever I can't get a response from the destination

I get this error when I'm trying to ping in the console prompt:

1) Ping request could not find host Please check the name and try again

I know this mean that there are no communication with the DNS


2) It's not better doing this:
Ping 64.233.161.104 : request time out


3) 192.168.0.9 (DNS) doesn't work either


However when I type Ipconfig /all into the console, it gives me this stuff and find also the DNS

IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.100
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.22
DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.22
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.9
203.108.60.11
203.108.60.12

I'm aware that my wireless and wire networks are in 2 differents range of IP and it's probably the reason why I can't get internet with the wireless device.

Remember that all works fine on the router. I am able to ping or traceroute google or my DNS. It's only with windows and my browse that I can't access Internet.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I really need a solution [upsidedown]


Finally here is my router config, if it could help

Do you really care if your wired and wireless networks are on different subnets? If not, just use wireless router as an Access Point. See thread916-991299 for more info.

Good luck.
