I'm not sure what you're saying ... What I have is a Wireless TrueMobile Access Point. What do you mean by am I using it as a Router or a Gateway? I have the DHCP off on the wireless access point, so call it router, gateway, access point, chumba maloomba, ... And no I'm not trying to add wireless capability to a wired router. I have wired PCs and I have wireless PCs. I want to "uplink" a wireless router (or whatever you wanna call it) to a regular router which is connected to my ISPs cable modem. What do you suggest I do again?

I have two routers, one is wired Linksys BEFSR41 and the other is wireless Dell Truemobile. My cable modem goes into my BEFSR41 which has an ip address of 192.168.1.1 and has the DHCP on. I take one of the ports of the BEFSR41 and connect the WAN port of Wireless router to it. The ip address of my Wireless router is 192.168.2.1 and all the laptops have static ip addresses like 192.168.2.x This worked. I could even ping 192.168.1.1 from the laptops. Browse the internet, etc. However, this morning the internet suddenly stopped on the laptops. I went down to check what's going on, and realized that I could not even ping 192.168.1.1 from the wired PCs. I did a "save changes" on BEFSR41 and everything started to work again. I am just wondering, should I change the ip address of my wireless router to 192.168.2.something as well? And should I leave the laptops as static ips 192.168.2.x or should I turn the automatically configure on them? OR is everything ok just the way it is? Asad
