Thread: Router help

Years ago I got a vonage line so i figured i would get one with a wifi router in it. Vonage Telephone Adapter/Wireless Router - VWR-VR by D-Link
Well the range on it was to lacking for my needs.

So i went and bought a linksys with pre n and got a new card for my puter.
Linksys.com – Products/Wireless/Basic Networking/Broadband Routers/Wireless-N (draft 802.11n)/WRT350N

Night and day differnce even with my labtop with G card. Well here is what i am trying to do. I have my linksys router next to my cable modem in the center of my house. and i have a cat5e running across the floor to my office where I have my laser printer plugged in. To keep me from having another cable running across the floor "till i can get in the crawlspace and run a line" is plug my dlinkrouter into the linksys router and then off the dlink hook up my laser printer. Dlink is what i plug my phones into. Its next to the laster printer and fax. Can i configure it to work this way. I have turned off dhcp, and the wifi part on it. I have also changed it to be on the same subnet as the linksys. 192.168.1.200 in this case. Any ideas? Or will this just not work. I just tyring to keep from tripping on cables.

iam assuming that there is only the one computer ( your laptop) or is there a another computer in your office???

Its a small home office. i have 3 computers and 2 other printers but they are all on wifi. I want to keep the 1st router in the middle of the house so i can roam on the laptop. And i was wanting to use the 2nd to plug all my stuff into.

No, its connected by cat5. would be nice if i could do it wireless then i would not have a cable going thru my house.

it won't see the other router (I have a linksys and a zonet in my house with the standard dlink vonage adapter)
