Connect two wrt54G together

Hello,
I have of the same routers WRT54G. The fisrt one is connected to the internet, wired connected to my main computer.
I use it to get connected to the internet wireless no problem with the laptop.
I have a network printer on a other room and I need create a wireless connection with the second router. I "d like to use this second router as a wireless access point just for the printer.
How to make my first router talk to the second router and be able to print with my main computer and laptop using the first router connection??
Thank you
Ludo

Well you need to connect the printer to the Print Server using the USB Cable & then accordingly you need to connect the router to the pc & the Print Server & the printer configuration to the router & configure your print server.

Connecting two WRT54GS to the same (wired) router (non-linksys)

Due to some security issue I have to connect two WRT54GS to the same wired router.
Do I connect the first WRT54GS to one port of the router and the second one to another port?
And is the connection on the WRT the ethernetport or the internetport?
And can I reach both the configuration screens or do I have to change the
adress of one of them to e.g. 192.168.1.2 ?
Regards,
hENK.

I will suggest you to connect the LAN port of wired router to LAN ports of both WRT54GS ........ Th connectino to WRT54GS is Ethernet Port ......
Regarding the Ip address of WRT54GS ..... change the Ip address of first wireless router from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.2 ........make the DHCP service disabled ....
For the other router the Ip address would be 192.168.1.3 ...... DHCP service again disabled .........
For accessing the set up page of both router use the new Local Ip address.........on the explorer address bar ......

Connecting two WRT54G wireless routers - how to configure

Hi All,
I have two WRT54G wireless routers. One is currently providing wireless access for several users at a local law firm. I need to connect a second wireless router for a user who works for another company in the same office. The second wireless router is basically going to be used for Internet access. The Office Manager at the law office does not want the user from the other company using their wireless router directly, BUT they will allow me to hook up the second wireless router for Internet access. I realize this doesn't really make sense in terms of security, but this is the scenario I must abide to. So I am wondering how to configure the second router. I am thinking that I connect a CAT5 from one port on the first router to the Internet port on the second router. I am also guessing that I need to assign the the second router a static IP with a different subnet such as 192.168.2.1. I am not sure if the first router still has the default 192.168.1.1. If the first router does use 192.168.1.1 would I need to change the IP on the second one to one on another subnet? Thanks.

You will need a setup like this:
Modem --- new WRT54G ---- existing WRT54G
192.168.2.1 192.168.1.1 ( "Local IP address" )
Modem connects to Internet port of new WRT54G.
LAN port of new WRT54G connects to Internet port on existing WRT54G.
SSID: different on each router (do not use "linksys" )
SSID broadcast: enabled on both routers
encryption: recommend WPA2, or at least WPA (can be same or different on the two routers).
passwords: different on each router.
channel: try to stay at least 5 channels apart. Usually channel 1, 6, and 11 work best, but any two different channels can be used.
Any "port forwarding" used by existing WRT54G must also be done on new WRT54G.
Both routers need a real login password (not "admin" )
New WRT54G will need "Intenet connection type" set to whatever is currently on existing WRT54G. Internet connection type for existing WRT54G will need to be set to DHCP.

Connecting Two ASAs together via local interface

Hi
I have two cisco ASA routers & wish to connect them together so that traffic between is permitted with out going outside interface.
Two asa are located at in ONE office and two have separate internet connection (ISP) configured.
So here is what I did so far.
configure one of the interface on each ASA with some IP adddress.
ASA 1 ------- interface 0/6 10.1.1.1 (ASA X 1512)
ASA 2 --------- interface 0/5 10.2.2.2 (ASA 5055)
now connected a Ethernet cable to these inferface.
I was able to addd a route on asa 2.
route add interface0/5 10.1.1.0/24 10.2.2.2
but when I add route on ASA 1 I get the following error.
route add interface0/6 10.2.2.2/24 10.1.1.1
%invalid next hop address it belongs to one of our interface.

Sorry if I was not clear
I have two separate ISPs connecting two two separate ASAs.. Two asa are now connecting separate LANs.
Now I want to communicate between LANs.
So I connected an ethernet cable bw ASAs and trying to configure the route.
But not able to establish
Here is the configuration of ASA where I am faceing problem, while trying to add route
route add voice-interface 10.1.1.1/24 255.255.255.0 10.2.2.2 1

How do I connect two lines together.

I have two lines at an angle but where the corner of the angle is supposed to be there is a little triangle missing. I tried joining the two lines together but when I hit join one line goes past the other.
Before Joining:
After Joining:

There is no need to lock one of the paths, because you do not have to tediously select endpoints just to join paths. Doing so was necessary in Illustrator for most of its history, but it finally (decades behind other drawing programs) gained the ability to join paths at their nearest endpoints by just selecting the paths.
Undo (or cut) the unwanted join.
Black pointer: Select the left and right paths.
Join.
Alternativley, when drawing line art, it is not uncommon to set your default Graphic Style to use rounded endcaps. That negates the problem of the "missing triangle" (as you call it) appearance of coincident straight end caps.

Trying to connect two WRT54GS one has gateway and the other as router... HELP!

Long story short i have 2 WRE54G v2 and still dont get the signal i want. My last ditch effort is picking up a WRT54GS v6 last friday with high gain dB antena to act as an extender. My current WRT54GS is v1 with high gain dB antena. Can i get these routers to talk to one another wirelessly?
Help!!!
Idleloud

Mort is right. They can not connect together with the linksys firmware. Some third party firmware does allow that but third party firmware will void any warranty and you will not get any support from linksys. I recommend adding a access point to increase the range from your WRT54GS.

Connecting two Socket together

Hi everyone !
Here is my little problem :
I have two objects in a software. Each of them have a Socket, and i need to connect them together.
How can i do that ? it seems i could with a ServerSocket, but ... is there an other way ?
If anyone has an idea ...
Thanks.

Here are more precisions :
I've just made a try on something. Here is a little piece of code :
<pre>
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
class Obj{
public InetSocketAddress address;
Socket s;
String name;
public Obj(String n, int port) throws Exception {
name = n;
address = new InetSocketAddress("127.0.0.1",port);
System.out.println(name + " : port " + address.getPort());
s = new Socket();
public void connect(Obj o) throws Exception {
s.connect(o.address);
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Obj obj1 = new Obj("objet1",2001);
Obj obj2 = new Obj("objet2",2002);
obj1.connect(obj2);
</pre>
And the result is :
Exception in thread "main" java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused
Well, i guess this comes from the fact that my Socket in Obj1 is not ready to recieve a connection ... is there something similar to the method accept() of ServerSocket for the sockets ?

Connecting Two WRT54GS Wireless To A Cable Modem w/ TIVO, PS3, and Wii

Not real great in the networking thing. Upon reading I have found that you can only use WEP on a wireless adapter pluged into a TIVO (series 2 that is christmas gift to wife) to connect it to the internet, and as a concern of having to downgrade my entire network on my main router to WEP I looked for a solution. I read somewhere that if you cat5e from the TIVO into a WRT54GS you can then use the router to send wireless with WPA (or WPA2) to another WRT54GS that is cat5e into the modem. To complicate things I am giving my kids a PS3 and a Wii for christmas and wanted to connect it to the same router as the TIVO. My internet is Charter Comunications cable. The two routers are Versions 5 and 6. The TIVO is remote and I cannot get cat 5e cable to it so I need to use wireless. All distances are ok for wireless. The "main" router that is plugged into the cable modem is a ver.6 and is set in DHCP. All "gifts" are wrapped under the tree so I can't set those components before christmas. I would like to setup the routers to speed things along. I have a laptop (hardwired ) to the second router to set it up. Two other computers and a HP printer are connected to the "main" router. All computers are Windows XP -SP2.
Questions:
1. Can this be done with these components and keep security on the "Main" router maintained?
2. Upon reading these boards it sounds like I should split my system into two seperate routers with the second one passing thru the main router. How would this be done? What are the settings? Reserve addresses for static in the main router to use in the second and run as one system? Remember I am not to good at the network thing... so be complete in the explaination.
3. If I do things as indicated in question 2 will that leave my TIVO, PS3, and Wii open to attack to the internet? Any way to better secure?
4. Any pointers as to how this really should be done would help. Any better ideas in setup??
Thanks.......

Yep, I wanted to connect them wireless but it sounds like I cant without some issues.
Second choice: Cascade-- Connect routers by Cat 5e and make the second one a WEP that has the TIVO, PS3, and the Wii connected wireless to it. The main Router would have the computers and printer connected to it. The main router would be WPA (2) protected for a wireless laptop.
Is the second choice possible??
Should the second router be with static IP's?? Is this the best way to do this with these types of items connected?
I think this will make two wireless systems but if I make the second one a DHCP enabled one then I think it might cause conflicts with a chance of both routers picking the same IP for a connected item. What is the best method for doing this and keeping some type of security??

To save my life I can't connect two computers together.

I have a G5 and an iBook G45.
They both connect to the Internet easily using my cable connection. There is a DLink router that allows both Macs to use the Internet at the same time.
But these two computers can't see each other. I've turned on file sharing and done everything else under the sun I can think of. Sometimes the IBook can see the G5 but today it has decided that the G5 server is running on the Ibook and I should access files locally.
The G5 can't see the Ibook ever.
I can use Firewire to connect easily.

Hi Stu,
Can you connect from one using the ip address of the other? The Finder command cmd-k brings up a dialog for you to enter the URI of the other machine. The first part is the protocol (e.g. http, ftp, afp) the next two parts are so unused I forget what they are. The third part is the host name or address and the last part is the filesystem or file.
So if the machine you wanted to connect to was 192.168.1.10, and it had appletalk filing protocol turned on (personal file sharing) and you wanted to mount Applications, you'd enter
afp://192.168.1.10/Applications
You can leave the filesystem off. If that works, then you can connect. That means you only have the problem of seeing. Each computer is supposed to announce its services using Bonjour. There's a great utility called Bonjour Browser (free on versiontracker) which will show you what's being advertised. I have noticed that it sometimes takes a very long time before file sharing is advertised.

Connect two WRT54Gs Wirelessly

To whom it may concern,
I currently have 2 WRT54Gs that I want to connect wirelessly.
One router is connected to the modem which serves IP addresses to my hardwired and my wireless computers dynamically (used as a DHCP server for my local network). At another point in my house, I have a TiVo and a PS2 that I would also like to hook up to the home network, but rather than purchasing wireless cards and attempting to get them set up with the encryption, my plan was to purchase a "Wirelss switch" as an "Access point" that could hook to my original router wirelessly and hook these devices (and other devices) to it physically using network cables.
I thought I needed an access point so I traveled down to my local Staples and saw that they had sold out of access points. I also noticed that WRT54Gs doubled as access points and believe it or not were $20 cheaper than the one port Access point. Thinking this would be easy to set up, I purchased the second WRT54G and set on my way.
Needless to say, I'm having a bit of trouble getting the second router to pick up the wireless network of the first. I've Googled the issue and the closest I came is to hardwiring one router to the next and turning off DHCP server for the new one. That would completely defeat the purpose of doing this wirelessly.
Any thoughts on the matter would be appreciated.

Interesting that this thread was moved to the Routers forum. The meat of the question was really how to get a WRT54G to perform a wireless bridge to another since the packaging on the box implies that it functions as a Wireless Access Point. Either way, I think my answer is that the Linksys Firmware for a WRT54G does not include the wireless bridge capabilities that it's WAP brothers have.
In order to get this to work, I'll need to void warranties and install 3rd party software that will allow the router to act as a wireless client of the first.

Connecting two computers together using an intermediate server.

I'm trying to write a program that allows users to connect to a server and then pairs off users to chat. I setup the connections between the two clients and that works fine, but as soon as the server disconnects from the two clients the connection between the two is lost. The server is always runnning, it sets up sockets that are global to the clients, what am I missing?

I am not very sure how are you trying to do the job. Is it
client1 <-----> server <----> client2
i.e. all message from client1 is send to server which passes them on to client2 and vice versa. If yes, you will loose connectivity when server goes down. Instead, try a an connection client1 directlyt to client2. for this you might need to run a socket server on client2
the pseudo code might look like this
1. client1 connect to server.
2. client1 check client2 is logged in and convays interest to connect to client2
3. client1 gets IP address and port of client2 from server. This info has been convayed to sever when client 2 logged in.
4. client1 opens socket connection to client2
5. client2 has ServerSocket with establishes recieves connection, opens socket and starts chat seesion.
Note that after step 5, client1 and client2 are directly connected and server no longer comes into picture. It only acts as repository for IP address and port of client2.
hope it helps

Connect two SPA8800 together

Hi,
I have two Cisco SPA8800 and I want to make them work together to transport an analog line throught an IP network. I searched on the net and the admin guide and I've found anything that could help me so I'm asking you some help.
So, I have one analog line in my first SPA8800 (in the line 1). I have another SPA8800 on the same network and I want to be able to pick up the phone (phone 1) and take the analog line on the first gateway. I also want to be able to call the phone number of the analog line and answer with the phone.
I tried to work with Dial Plan, I tried many things but nothings worked.
I've already did it a few month ago between two Multitech device but it was a lot easier than the Cisco.
Thanks for your help.

Connecting two macs together to increase render speed.......

hello edit land. i am writting from chili where we are trying to produce a trailer and finish production. Time and money are not around. I need to figure a way to increase the render time while i am collor correcting. i am a novice jack of all trades master of none type, and i have never explored quark, shake all that stuff and perhaps the answer lies there. Anyway i have an i book g4 with out fcp on it and a power book g4 that is doing the work right now, and 380 gig external drive (g raid). is there any way to use the three of these together to process render files faster? thanks kellam

Sorry. Currently the answer is no. Shake and DVDSP4 and Compressor can benefit from a network of computers, but not FCP...

There are several ways you can achieve this. First off, you will want to have a single shell of a VI which loads the subpanel with the desired GUI. Through the shell the user can select which GUI to view and interact with. Your process tasks can either run as background tasks and use messaging via queues, notifiers or user event to control when they start and stop. The other alternative would be to have your shell VI dynamically load the appropriate GUI when needed. When you need to switch you would stop the running GUI and load the other one.

Connecting two macs together wirelessly

I have no clue if this is posible but I would like to be able to connect to my imac down stairs from my macbook up stairs to send documents instantly.
I currently use an app called gdisk. Up loud my files (mostly documents) then come downstairs turn on gdisk on my imac download the files then print the files I need.
I believe I need my ip address which I got here
http://www.ipchicken.com/
then I went to find and said connect to finder. But I have no clue after that.
Is it posible to have my imac down stairs as an icon on my sidebar my macbook? Where I can just dobule click and have acess to transfer files.
if so is there any videos or step by step websites to help with this.
Thanks.

Not sure I understand your network problem, but to answer at least a part of your question - (Is it possible to have my imac down stairs as an icon on my sidebar my macbook? Where I can just double click and have access to transfer files.) - once you do get a network connection, a globe icon, representing your other Mac (the source you want to send data from), should appear on your desktop (the target or Mac you want to transfer the data to). Before logging out or quiting connection to server on the target, drag that globe icon of the source Mac to your dock of the target Mac; place it immediately to the left of your trash. Then, next time you need to connect to the source (i.e., connect to upstairs from downstairs), you should be able to click that globe icon on the dock of the target/downstairs Mac and be linked to the other (source/upstairs) computer.
Hope this helps a little bit! It works flawlessly with Airport.
