I'm at my wits end trying to solve what I keep thinking is a simple problem. My old DSL modem doesn't have a wireless interface. It's connected to a router (the LAN gateway) which then has ethernet connections to my boxes. All of these computers use static IP addresses. The DSL modem is assigned a dynamic IP address by my ISP. I recently added a DIR-615 D-Link wireless router which connects to the gateway router. I also have a netbook which I first configured with a static IP address and the IP address of the gateway router. This worked fine -- but, of course, I mostly use the netbook away from home, so I reconfigured it to accept a dynamic IP address from whatever Starbucks wireless network I'm connected to. So now the netbook works fine, as long as I'm NOT connected to my own LAN. When I'm at home connected to my LAN on the netbook I can get to all the local computers fine -- but I can't reach the Internet. The wireless router has an Internet --> WAN page in its setup that includes a choice of Internet Connection Types: (1) Dynamic IP (DHCP), which I can't use since the DSL modem has already taken the one IP address assigned by my ISP; (2) Static IP; (3) PPPoE; (4) PPTP; and (5) L2TP Will any of these work? I'd appreciate some advice before I rush in and start changing things without knowing what I'm doing... -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
