Hi Richard.
Simply put...
Use the Netgear for DHCP.
Turn DHCP Server Off on the Draytek.
Assign the Draytek a static IP (not 192.168.0.1 but something in
the DHCP pool)
That'll do it for now - unless someone else on the list wants to
explain subnets.
Hi
I have been given a lovely piece of kit by a lug member. I need
to now set this up and I am wondering if I could have some help
please?
I now have a Netgear DGN2200v4. This is serving as a router and
dhcp server. It also provides wifi.
The new piece of kit is a Draytek Vigor 2130 Series Broadband
Router/Firewall.
So, I now want to switch off all functionality in the Netgear
and let the Draytek take over, using the Netgear simply as a
modem.
Both bits of equipment are using the ip address of 192.168.0.1.
When I type that in a browser, I get access to the Netgear. The
Draytek is connected via cable to the Netgear and currently
displays a wifi identity as Draytek with no protection. I can
log into the wifi and use it.
I tried turning off the Netgear as a DHCP server and lost the
internet completely and so I reset that and I am now once again
functioning.
I am assuming that if I tell the Netgear to use IP address
192.168.0.250 say, this will then allow me to connect to the
Draytek. Is that correct please, if not can someone tell me the
steps to take in order to let the Draytek take over and secure
the Network please?
Thanks
