For me that means IPTV - net is 192.168.1.x (lan port 4),
192.168.2.1 is for speedport w700v, 192.168.3.x is for LAN ports 1-3 and 192.168.4.x for WLAN
each net has its own dhcp which is working perfectly, every client gets a ip according to his subnet.
dhcp area starts with 100 so i can also manually set IPs below this number.
internet is working fine for all clients, doesnt matter whether they have automatic ip or manual (with the right gateway)
So but i have a problem now, the communication between the subnets dont work.
i need to establish a working connection between WLAN Subnet (192.168.4.x) and LAN Port 1-3 (192.168.3.x).
Communication within the subnet (e.g. from wlan client 1 to wlan client 2) works without any problem.
what is curious about this issue, sometimes pinging between the subnets does work, but file exchange or any access does not
maybe somebody can help me, would be nice
i'm using DD-WRT v24-sp2 (03/13/09) mega - build 11762M NEWD Eko on a WRT54GS 1.1
here are some screenshot of my current config
(here it doesnt matter if I assign Port 4 to LAN bridge or not.. logically i dont do this because i dont want the IPTV reciever to be on LAN subnet)
no i tried the standard access via windows explorer (\\192.168.4.x) to a client that has a working sharing folder.
like it worked before i made different subnets
via ftp would be a try, i have to set up the ftp server then..
did you take an overview over my config, did i make any critical mistake?!
(i'M not the dd-wrt expert, there are many settings i don't understand)
can you tell me how to allow file-sharing between the different subnets?
can i set a ip range that is allowed file-sharing? if not, i have to use manual ips and allow for single clients..
Disable Vista firewall and try ping again, just as a way of deducing what the problem might be.
If that doesn't work, disable XP firewall and try ping again.
BTW, this pinging problem...are you trying the ping on 2 machines in the same subnet, or 2 different subnets.
hi,
i tried to ping from WLAN XP computer (subnet 192.168.4.x) to LAN XP computer (192.168.3.x).
pinging works there but NO file access or printer access.
pinging between subnets and XP<->Vista, Vista<->Vista doesnt work :/
In general, is it possible to configure the firewalls to allow file access through different subnets?
because if the only solution is to shut down all firewalls, I need to figure out another possibility in preventing multicast packets disturbing my WLAN...
(because this is the reason why i'm using different subnets- to hold the multicast back from my WLAN devices..)

Perhaps you already have the answer, but for anyone else..
Windows Firewall does allow things to be set to permit subnet traffic only (odd when I saw it was ignoring things from another computer with no error :-/).
Go to control panel, Windows Firewall. On the exceptions tab, you'll need to check File and Printer Sharing. Click Edit... and you'll see four ports defined. The Scope colmn will say Subnet. Click Change Scope, and change it to Any Computer (internet...).
After that, you'll be able to do file sharing across subnets. The remaining issue is that you need to do this on any computer you want to be able to access...
