[Cialug] Routing problem, ..

[Don Ellis]

That's the way I've been doing it. Have 2 or 3 Linksys's connected to a
D-Link main router. Main trick is to turn off DHCP on the slave routers &
assign their to an IP that doesn't conflict with others on the subnet.
Typically, I assign each of the secondary routers an internal ip in
sequence, i.e.. 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3, ...

Doesn't matter if you leave WAN page unprogrammed, or set it whatever -
it's not connected.
