TomatoUSB

Im trying to connect my R1 TomatoUSB asus 16n , with a R2 D-link dir 655.
R1 settings: 192.168.0.1, 255.255.255.0
R2 settings: 192.168.1.1, 255.255.255.0

R1 WAN port to R2 Lan port with adress 192.168.0.2 on R1.
R2 has static routes dest 192.168.1.0, gateway 192.168.0.2, subnet 255.255.255.0
R2 has static routes dest 192.168.1.1, gateway 192.168.0.2, subnet 255.255.255.0

I changed my settings in R1 to router mode.
I changed my firewall settings R1 to allow ICMP, so i can ping it from a pc on R2 , but i cant connect to any of the pcs on R1 or to the http admin page.

Any help?

hmmm are you using a WDS? or a Client ethernet bridge settings?

Blade3609,

Assuming both routers are running tomato:

Setup should be like:
R1 should be gateway under Advanced: Routing
R2 should be gateway under Advanced: Routing

Connect modem to R1 WAN port
Connect LAN port of R1 to WAN port of R2 (since IP address of R2 does not belong to R1 IP pool which is 192.168.0.1)

Alternative can also be:

R1 should be gateway under Advanced: Routing with IP of 192.168.0.1
R2 should be router under Advanced: Routing with IP of 192.168.0.2

Connect modem to R1 WAN port
Connect LAN port of R1 to LAN port of R2
Disable DHCP on R2

This would let all connected clients see each other on both Access points

To have clients roam between Access points without disruption, have identical SSID, encryption on both R1 and R2

HTH

the first setup is exactly what im trying to do, but then R1 cant see R2 or the computers on it. any help ?

Blade,

R1 WAN port to R2 Lan port with adress 192.168.0.2 on R1.

Your R1 WAN port should be connected to the modem not to your R2
Connect R1 LAN port to R2 LAN port

I changed my settings in R1 to router mode.

R1 should be set as gateway
R2 should be set as router

thats the setup i have ,

Lets call my Dlink 655 R1 which would be in gateway mode, which has adresses 192.168.0.1 , is also connected to my DSL modenm
R2 which is my tomatoUSB adress 192.168.1.1 which is in router mode, and is connected from wan port R2 to the lan port of R1, the adress its given is 192.168.0.2.

any ideas?

Blade,

R1 (Dlink 655) is ok, no need to change anything
R2, change address to 192.168.0.2, leave it in router mode, connect R1 LAN to R2 LAN (not WAN on R2)
Disable DHCP on R2

P.S. - sorry for bad english grammar, its not my native language

but i want two different adresses. so i can disable one range of the adresses for P2P

Change R2 to gateway mode
Connect R1 LAN port to R2 WAN port
R2 IP should be different from R1 (R1 = 192.168.0.1 and R2 = 192.168.1.1)
Treat R2 as normal router with its own DHCP turned ON

It doesnt work, internet works, but the two adresses cant see each other
