Need to "link" two routers

Hi guys, I need advices here.
I just bought a new TV and a new DVD that can access the Internet for interactive stuff. But for that, I need a specific wireless key from the manufacturers or a LAN connection. I don't want to buy the wireless key but I want to use the LAN connections (1 for the TV and 1 for the DVD). Unfortunaly, I don't want to pass a cable all over my house just to link those new devices to the Internet.
Since I have two wireless routers, I was wondering if I could "wirelessly" link my routers to save cable. All my "ordinary" stuff will still be connected to my main router.
Here is what I plan to do:
Connect my modem to my main router (WRT610N v2).
Wirelessly link my secondary router (WRT54G v3) to my main router (WRT610N v2). [this is where I need help]
Connect both TV and DVD by wire to my secondary router.
I hope you can help me with this...
Thanks guys!
Solved!

Sorry, you can not connect two routers wirelessly with Linksys firmware.  You must use a wire to cascade two routers.  However there is 3rd party firmware that will allow this, DD-WRT.  Search the web and see if it will work for you.

  • Need to link two separate Skype accounts

    I signed up for a Skype account with my Microsoft account but forgot I already had an old account with my exact name.  So now I have two different Skype accounts and would like to merge them and keep the old account that has my full name, "JaneDoe". 
    My old account:  JaneDoe
    My new account:  live:janed_1
    Yes, when I signed up with my Microsoft account I did not select the option to merge the accounts.  HOW CAN I GET BACK THE OPTION TO MERGE ACCOUNTS?  I've spent hours looking through community posts and it seems as though there is no solution.

    First try to unlink your generated Skype account (live:xxxx) from your Microsoft account.
    Try login into Skype profile website with your Microsoft account details, then go to the Microsoft account section and click Unlink.
    You can now re-merge your old Skype account with your Microsoft account.
    Try login into Skype with your microsoft credentials.
    select "Alternatively, sign in with Microsoft account" option.
    You"ll see the merge wizard. Select I have a Skype account.

  • Linking Two Routers

    I have a Frontier modem/router and a Linksys E1200 router. I would like to connect them together so that I can switch between the Frontier service and a different service connected directly to the E1200. I have tried connecting them as documented in

  • Linking two ODS objects using a multiprovider

    Hello Gurus,
    I need to link two ODS objects and both are having 3 common characteristics and the relationship between the two objects are one to many.
    My questions would be....
    1)When the relationship is one to many can I set it up in the multiprovider to sum it up and show in the report?
    2)I have 5 other charaterstics that I need to report(Slice and dice) on, but these are not common ones to both ODS objects. Is it possible for the user to get the report based on these charaterstics also? Or do I need to make sure that these 5 also exist in both DOS objects?
    Thank you,
    DM

    Hi Sh,
    Thank you very much for your reply. But I have few concerns.
    1)One to many relationship will not have any effect on the data linking since the multiprovider clubs the key figures on common characteristics. I tried this on the system and it worked.
    2)The problem would be not having similar characteristics on both infoproviders. So if I want to report on the chars individually it will have a problem( Will come as non assigned values)
    But the documentation says the multiprovider supports Homogenous and Heterogeneous cases. Please refer the following link.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/52/1ddc37a3f57a07e10000009b38f889/frameset.htm
    I am not sure what I can do now....whether to get all the characteristics in both infoproviders by enhancing the them. Or is there another way?
    And lastly the scenario I am looking at is billing and cost of goods. So I might find records in cost of goods which may not have corresponding records in billing.(There can be goods in stock which need to be billed)The problem would be the way multiprovider link records(union) so it will have all the records from both sides even if they do not correspond to each other.
    Let me know what you think.

  • Linking together two routers

    Is it possible to link together two modem/routers in the same network?  I have a WRT54G in my home office in the front corner of my house.  The wireless signal is weak on the other end of the house (TV room).  I've tried a Range Expander but the kitchen appliances cause too much interference.
    I would like to install another cable model in the TV room, but have them both use the same encryption key so you don't change networks as you move from one corner of the house to the other.  Is this possible?

    Yes, it is possible to link together two routers in the same network...See the link here and follow Cascading the Linksys Router to Another Linksys Router (LAN-LAN)...

  • How to : connect two routers running under another

    So this issue is tricky and i have had no luck in getting this to work. Basically what i need to do, is connect "Network 2" with "Network 1" and both run off of another larger network. The Base Network is out of my control and i cannot set or change any setting within that network's routers or DHCP Servers. Thus i am forced to set routes within my routers to communicate to each other. The need for this communication is software that runs on a server within "Network 1" needs to be available to all client computers running on both "Network 1" and 'Network 2". Obviously the computers running off the same router as the server are fine. Getting the computers running off the router for "Network 2" is the tricky part. Here is a link to a diagram of the setup : http://i64.photobucket.com/albums/h176/m4x70r/networkquery.jpg Some of the things i have tried are setting the DMZ on "Network 1" to point at the server. Setting routes in both to point at the other. Setting the Gateway in "Network 2" router to point at the WAN address of "Network 1" and setting the DNS of "Network 2" to the WAN of "Network 1". No matter what i do, the laptops inside "Network 2" cannot ping the laptops in "Network 1" or even ping the router for "Network 1". However, when pinging the name of the server, it does show the IP addy i gave it, so it sees it in some small fashion but cannot link to it. I'm stumped. Time to get a networking cert i suppose. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!

    First you have missed to mentioned the most important thing for your setup: are those two routers running in gateway mode or router mode?
    It is also quite confusing which routes you tried to set exactly. (in particular why you mentioned the DNS server?). Please simply post the exact settings of the routes you have entered on either routers.
    As you have mentioned that you have no control over the main network I guess your routers operate in gateway mode. In that case they do NAT - network address translation. NAT shares a single public IP address with multiple computers with private IP addresses inside the LAN. NAT makes computers in the LAN inaccessible from the outside unless you have configured an explicit port forwarding or DMZ host.
    Moreover, with NAT you cannot access the computers inside the LAN on an inside IP address. This is impossible because the private IP addresses inside the LAN are not visible on the outside. You can only access any computer on the WAN IP address of the router. You cannot ping any computer inside the LAN behind the router with NAT. UDP or TCP access is limited to what you forward. The DMZ host is the "default" forward which gets all ports which are not forwarded otherwise.
    If both routers are in gateway mode you don't have to define any routes on the routers as the destination subnet is not accessible. To make your server accessible you have to define port forwardings to your server on 192.168.1.2 or put it into the DMZ. You can then access the server the external IP address of the router, i.e. 10.7.2.101. The router forwards incoming traffic on that address to your server at 192.168.1.2.

  • CSS11506 SQL and two routers

    2 questions
    Can I use a CSS11506 to duplicte writes to a pair of SQL databases. I need to ensure that when a webserver writes to one SQL server the switch duplicates this so that it is written to both SQL servers.
    Can I use the CSS11506 to balance my website across two routers. The site will be connected to the Internet by two isp links.

    The CSS 11500 series switches do load balancing among multiple web servers. Guess it should be possible to balance across routers too. But I have no experience with this. Would some one else like to comment on this?

  • Why need to link credit memo with invoice

    Hi, gurus,
    I received an AP invoice valued $2222 and then received a credit memo valued $222 about 1 week later.
    Now I need to make payment.
    I was told it's good to link credit memo with invoice by entering invoice number in the field "invoice reference" when creating credit memo. But I'm not sure why it's better because system will pick up both items anyway when i entered $ 2000 using f-53 to make outgoing payment.
    The only reason i can think of is this link will guarantee that credit memo has the same terms of payment with invoice.
    Is there any other good reasons? Any help will be appreciated.

    Dear,
    We need to link credit memo with invoice against for two obvious reasons
    1.. Future tracking of all credit memo i-e if we gave excess credits to vendor then it was against which invoice. This will create linkage and tracking of credit memo with invoice that will be shown in FBL1N .
    2..At the end of specific time period ,month or quarter ,its a normal practise to reconcile vendor balance as per SAP ledger to that of vendor's own book. At that time you will need credit memo track also that against which invoice was the credit given.
    This all can be achived after posting credit memo with refrence to invoice number. Audit perpective should also be kept in mind. Hope this will help you
    Regards

  • Using two routers for the same SSID

    So here's my story. I have a standard Actiontec router in my basment, connected straight to the coax outlet, and connected by LAN Ethernet to a crappy computer nobody uses. It gives off a WPA2 wifi network, let's call it MyNetwork. For the longest time it's been the only router in the house. The coax outlet is on a splitter, splitting the coax outlet into one wire that goes to the Actiontec modem/router and the other to my TV STB. Recently we installed a new coax outlet on the other side of my house and next to it we have a brand new desktop computer that we use often. It has no wifi so and we can't run an ethernet cable throughout the entire house so we got a new Actiontec modem/router from our neighbor who just moved out. It's the exact same Actiontec device.
    What we want to do is make it so that both routers give off signal on the same MyNetwork we have to make it a wider reaching signal, and so that I can connect the new desktop computer to the new router with an ethernet cable. I've read so many guides and they're all so confusing and it's such a mess that I almost completely screwed over my network. it seems like the two routers are completely independent of one another, not even aware of the others' existence. The new router is definitely in range of the old one. I've logged into 192.168.1.1 on the new computer and the new router seems to think it IS the old router (or so I think). It showed me all the same devices that have connected to MyNetwork and such, but then again it's always hard to be certain exactly which device is which. After messing around I must have changed some IP address or something, but it seems that 192.168.1.1 doesn't take me to the Verizon login screen, but 192.168.2.1 does. Can I reset those IP addresses?
    And of course, can somone please provide a clean, easy to follow course of action as to how to set up two routers on one network?

    I suspect it might be a good idea to step back reconsider your ultimate layout.  Essentially you now have two (or if the STB is also included, three) coax drops connected to the ONT.  It seems that you desire that one of these service the STB, and the other two each service a desktop and a wireless access point.  If this is the case, continue reading.
    There is no need to consider the original Actiontec router as the primary router, wireless or otherwise.  Use the new coax location to connect to the primary Actiontec router (you can use either router).  For starters, reset both routers to their factory defaults using the reset switch on the back of each device (for details, do a search).
    Once the primary router has been located (or relocated) to the new coax drop, just connect the new desktop there using an Ethernet cable connected to one of the LAN ports on the back of the router.  Then set up your primary wireless network based on this router (once again, do a search on these forums for specifics on setting up a basic wireless home network).
    Now use the original coax outlet where the first router was located to set up another access point.  This access point will provide Ethernet connections plus an additional wireless network (if it's still needed).  However you cannot have two wireless devices on a single home network with the same SSID (i.e., network name).  Here are details on some methods to do this:

  • Linking two imacs?

    I know this has probably already been discussed at one point or the other but I need some information.
    I have an Intel iMac and a G5 iMac that both have Firewire ports. I do a lot of photography work and have many app open at once. I would like run Photoshop on one machine and Aperture on the other. All I need to do is be able to drag and drop from one computer to the other my image files. Is there any way to link two iMacs to do this. Obviously there is no way to control both computers with the same mouse and keyboard but I would like to at least be able to move files from one to the other with out having to do it over a network (router with ethernet). I just want to hook both computers together with one cable and drag and drop from one computer to the other. Any suggestions?

    Target Disk Mode (TDM) effectively turns the Mac that is in TDM mode into an external hard drive for the other Mac. This will certainly allow you to drag & drop files & folders between the two Macs ... but only one of the Macs will be usable while the other basically becomes a hard drive connected to it.
    It sounds like you want both Macs running as normal, but you want to share files/folders between them. And you don't want to do it via ethernet for some reason. Why? Networking would work fine.
    You can directly connect the 2 Macs via an ethernet cable or via a FireWire cable and network them together that way, no router is needed. In both cases you would have to turn on File Sharing in the Mac whose files you want to share; and log on to it from the other Mac via Go > Connect to Server. (If you use FireWire, you also have to set FW as your preferred network in System Preferences > Networking; also on the Firewire pane, set Configure IPv4 = DHCP.)

    Do you have general path??
    3. Parameters: I have 5 parameters to pass. 3 of them are Strings and the rest are DateTime.
    Basically, I need any tutorial about this kinds of things. The tutorial I have got only discribe link like "www.yahoo.com"
    BTW, is this even possible solution??

    Hi,
    I am trying to link two reports in the crystal report designer->deploy to the server->show in the DHTML viewer.

    http://server:port/........openDocument.jsp?sDocName=reportBsType=rptparamName1="Trim(ToText({?param1},"#####"))"paramName2="+Trim(ToText ({?param2},"#######"))
    No wonder it is not working.
    I guess I need special protection for "&" sign. Do you know any?

  • Query for Linking Two Tables without Reference

    Hi Folks,
    Good Day!
    I have this dilemma on how to link two tables without a reference. In the Business Partner Master Data, there is a field for the Territory which is from the table OTER. This OTER focuses on its description. Once you have added the particular Territory for that Business Partner, it is being stored in the Territory field of the BP right? Our client wants to have an automated way of searching for the Business Partner's Profit Center in creating a Sales Order wherein it is the same as the Business Partner's Territory. The Profit Center is from the table OPRC.
    When I create a Sales Order, after I have entered the Business Partner/Customer Code, the Profit Center should have the value of the Profit Center Code wherein it is the Business Partner's Territory. My query will go like this:
    Enter the BP/Customer Code automatically the Profit Center code where Profit Name = BP's Territory.
    OTER and OCRD don't have connections. How can it be?
    I'm thinking of retrieving the Territory first before the Profit Center but can you suggest of any other way?
    Thank you much!
    Regards,
    Fringe

    Hi Fringe,
    Okay, I already understood your case here. I presume your configuration as follows:
    OTER (Territory)
    territryID - descript
    1 - Philippine
    2 - Indonesia
    3 - Germany
    OPRC (Cost Centre)
    PrcCode - PrcName
    25 - Philippine
    33 - Indonesia
    47 - Germany
    Was above illustration correct? Then, you could use this formatted search in Cost Centre / Dimension field in Sales Order rows
    SELECT PrcCode FROM OPRC WHERE PrcName=(
    SELECT TOP 1 descript FROM OTER T0
    INNER JOIN OCRD T1 ON T0.territryID=T1.Territory
    WHERE T1.CardCode=$[OCRD.CardCode.0])
    However, I suggest you use a little bit different approach here. Since you can't define Territory Code / Territory ID (you could only type the Territory name, Philippine etc.), why don't you standardize Territory name with Cost Centre code? Let say, you define Philippine as PHI, Indonesia as INA, Germany as DEU and so on. Therefore, user can read the Cost Centre or more precisely Distribution Rules in Sales Order form in more familiar way.
    OTER (Territory)
    territryID - descript
    1 - PHI
    2 - INA
    3 - DEU
    OPRC (Cost Centre)
    PrcCode - PrcName
    PHI - Philippine
    INA - Indonesia
    DEU - Germany
    When FMS worked in Sales Order document, your user will read PHI instead of 25, should be more familiar to them. With that being said, you could use simpler FMS
    SELECT descript FROM OTER T0
    INNER JOIN OCRD T1 ON T0.territryID=T1.Territory
    WHERE T1.CardCode=$[OCRD.CardCode.0]
    You only need to maintain consistency between Territory Name and Cost Centre code. Just my two cents. Hope this help.
