| Subject | WLAN Extender on Subnet |
| Message-ID | <ru7578$19bo$1@gioia.aioe.org> |
Greetings! This is a home LAN with an OpenSuSE Linux gateway and a WLAN Router. The Gateway has the fix IP 192.168.1.222 with NetMask 255.255.255.0. The WLAN router has the fix address 192.168.1.240. It had the default address 192.168.0.1 which I modified to fit the subnet. All clients are connected viad dhcp. Connection via cable or wireless works fine. Now I want to add a WLAN Extender which has the fix IP 192.168.0.254. The extenders ip addr is not changable. My question: What needs to be done to integrate the new subnet 192.168.0.n with the subnet 192.168.1.n so that the clients traffic connected to the extender is routed to the gateway 192.168.1.222? Thanx for reading and hints.

Change the netmask to 255.255.0.0, so it's 192.168.0.0/16 Regards, Dave Hodgins -- Change dwhodgins@nomail.afraid.org to davidwhodgins@teksavvy.com for email replies.

I don't think you need to do anything, for the actual wireless clients it services. It's only for admin of the device. It is possible to add an IP address in the 192.168.0.0/24 range on the device you are going to use to admin the wireless device. as root ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.0.1 or better use ip but I can't remember the invocation. >> >> Thanx for reading and hints. > > Change the netmask to 255.255.0.0, so it's 192.168.0.0/16 > > Regards, Dave Hodgins >
