How to setup AsusWL-500gP to work with 4 port D-ComADSL router
every uses default ip's 192.168.1.1
i want that the 4 port D-ComADSL router works as switch (and conected to inet of course)
and AsusWL-500gP conects trough this 4 port D-ComADSL router to inet
and other free ports on AsusWL-500gP and D-ComADSL router must work as switch
the computers should conect to inet and must be managed trough AsusWL-500gP
how to made it
thanks !
I think you can follow 2 approaches
1) Connect the asus directly to internet and let it handle routing functionality.
(the asus has a built in modem, for which you have to configure you internet settings, and connect the 'internet' to the WAN port)
2) let your current modem control the routing and set up the asus as a 'switch' (For this, you have to set up the asus as 'Access point only' in the system configuration. But you will loose all routing capabilities off the asus if you do this. However, you gain an extra LAN-port, because the WAN port is in this setup threated as a normal LAN-port.
btw. this is well-documented in the manual
Hope this helps.
Good luck.
i think it would better to use the first because i need to do some url restrictions to LAN computers
could more explain how to do it _ thx !
in manual i don't finded it :(
asus is 10.0.0.1
d-com is 192.168.1.1
can you describe how to make the route config ?
many thx !
which to choose
Home gateway
Router
Acces Point (this probably no i have it tried)
?
Dear MrRobo,
In my current setup (which is very similar to yours) I have my asus setup as Access Point (The 3rd option).
I have a speedtouch716 connected to the internet, which does my routing. The asus is setup as Access Point.
How to configure operation mode from the router's website:
System Setup->Operation Mode->Access Point (choose this one)
ip-configuration from the asus website:
IP Config->LAN->
1) give it a hostname.: eg.: WL500g
2) get ip-automatically: NO
3) ipadres: 192.168.1.2 (normally this would be 192.168.1.1. but this one is taken by your dcom
4) default gateway: 192.168.1.1 (this your dcom, which handles internet traffic)
Good luck !
but when i setup it as access point could enable in firewall url restrictions (is adjustable on asus only) for all computers ?
