Currently I have a two wireless router setup. A D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G router set up as a gateway, and a Linksys WRT54G set up in router mode. Now I pipe the internet through the D-Link which then connects to the Linksys down the line. I have the D-Link handle the DHCP and so I disabled DHCP in the Linksys router. Now when I do disable it on the Linksys, after a few minutes the router becomes unreachable. (When I type in the IP it just hangs trying to contact the router, until it just says it failed to open the page.) (I suppose this is because the D-Link is taking over IP distribution.)
I'm kind of assuming that the router is being assigned some bizzaro IP perhaps, but I've tried to connect to every IP address combination I can think of using variations of Linksys and D-Link default IP's with no luck. (The D-Link router shows no actual sign/log of the Linksys)
I had this problem before when I used another Linksys WRT54G router to spread my dialup connection wirelessly (I had to disable DHCP as well thereby allowing my main Mac to do the distributing) and this made my router unreachable as well.
If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it, it's a pain having to reset the linksys router everytime I want to update some small thing.
