I recently got a La Fonera and put DD-WRT. I setup the La Fonera as a client mode. Everything is working the way i wanted it too with an exception. My settings for the La Fonera are simple. The D-Link Router IP is 192.168.0.1 and assigns devices with DHCP. The La Fonera IP is 192.168.1.1 it is on its own subnet. I kept the Default Settings. Also if it matters the D-Link router assigns the La Fonera an wan IP of 192.168.0.103
Now my question and problem is my Xbox dashboard IP address is 192.168.1.105 that obtains the IP from the La Fonera DHCP. My PC however has a IP address of 192.168.0.105 and as you can see is on a different subnet then my La Fonera.
All i would like to do is be able to access my files to MY PC from my xbox. In order for this to happen i would have to be on the same subnet as my PC.
I tried setting the IP address of the La Fonera router to a static ip on the same network at the D-Link router IE 192.168.0.100 but the Internet stopped working when i did that. However, not all of the internet stopped working. My AIM client and Utorrent were still working. Weird i know, but i could not access websites.
Also when the La Fonera had an IP address of 192.168.1.1 and my D-Link router had an IP of 192.168.0.1 i can access both Web GUI interfaces to administer the routers. However when i make the La Fonera a static IP address of 192.168.0.2 or whatever on the same subnet i can no longer access the D-Link router.
Anyone have any suggestions to getting the La Fonera on the same network working?
