I agree with Frank that the extra wireless gadget seems strangely redundant. Though, if you were planning to share the network, it could well be best if that second wireless gateway had a separate IP so that you can filter things off. You don't want to share all your private stuff publically. If your DHCP/DSL box has its own IP, you'd use that IP as the default gateway address to be configured into the router. And you'd use the router's IP as the default gateway address to be configured into the other gear. Likewise, the router is probably going to act as the DNS server for the rest of your network. Does your router not come with a configuration manual? Chances are that your router can configure all that automatically over DHCP, and you only need to set all your clients to use DHCP to set up their networking (e.g. use one of the network configuration GUIs on each client). If so, you can probably configure client addresses in your router's DHCP server, so that it doles out the same addresses to the same equipment each time. I think it's important that you understand those sorts of concepts (whether using automatic or static configuration, where you're doing the configuration - centrally or one each device, etc., the relationship of how the traffic flows through where) before you work out the specifics. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.23.1-10.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5.
