First, sit rep. I live and work in the jungle. In the city I wouldn't
be doing my job becaue someone better would have been found. However enough of the complaining. I actually like living in the jungle a lot. Wireless networking is the way to go because yesterday an elephant rubbed against the tree holding the LAN cable up to the GM's house and that was the end of that. We have a satellite connection working on one PC. 256/128 connection goes fine. Satellite NIC configured as 192.168.0.1 sun 255.255.255.1. I need to make tyhe satellite available to another 32 PC's also in the jungle. The LAN has worked fine for a year using a satellite/modem set-up through USB link to the NIC, RJ45 setup using B/B cables throughout. Now we have a new satellite up/down system. Satellite consumer box is linked by LAN cable to the server, second NIC set to another ip addy, 192.168.0.222 for reference. I believe I will need to change the LAN NIC to 192.168.0.? to share the internet connection. All machines use 2k, except for 2 XP machines which do as they are told. I have an ACCTON IG1004 gateway router, with WAN connection. I am using LAN connections only and am able to connect the first PC to the Satellite using a hub/switch. (Compex). When I try to connect the satellite to the WAN port of the router it don't see nothing no how. Suggestions please gentlemen adn ladies. IT Manager (In the Jungle) |
