Re: Fast Gateway Network IP
After investigating some more, connecting my laptop to the Lan ports on the gateway and running ipconfig command it appears both are assigning 192.168.1.***. As for plugging the cable from the gateway to the router, originally I tried several possibilities both as a AP and a bridge. So, it seems I need to be more diligent in monitoring the effect on IP assignments. Of coarse I only paid attention when things failed to function. The wife has the internet in use right now, so testing out alternate functionality would not be in my best interest if dinner is on the horizon. Further cable swapping and reconfigurations of the router needs to come later. It does work remembering the caveats and will try the switch configuration. As for the speed drop, even with the laptop plugged directly into the gateway there is a 50% drop in available data stream. For anyone with a hardwire Lan system this is significant problem with internal sharing on this gateway. Thanks for the help.Re: Fast Gateway Network IP
How this all started was I made my router a bridge to do away with double NAT and DHCP assignments. That is when I noticed all IP address were 172.27.35.*** as you will see when I attach the image from my router where the WAN port is shown. Another issue that has come up is these address as you stated the ISP or FWA seem to be bridging the modem into the internal network. I guessing but mail e-mail provider security kicked me out showing that I was in Washington state and I live in Idaho. As far as I know the Sagemcom Fast 5688W doesn't provide any access to the internal LAN network and only access to the wireless networking. I'm fine with 192.168.12.*** addressing which makes no difference to the network devices but bridging to the 172.27.35.*** is an issue. As it is now, Sagemcom wireless is 192.168.12.***, the internal home network is 172.27.35.25 to the router and then 192.168.1.*** assigned to all the internal home devices assigned now by DHCP in the router. Below is what my router registers set as an access point. Along with all this the band width is about 50% off the Sagemcom gateway in relationship to the wireless directly from the gateway. Thanks for the input and hope this might make it more clear what the situation. As you can see below the WAN address is not 192.168.12.***Fast Gateway Network IP
Is there anyway to get the wireless network IP on the same network as the wan ports. As it is, the wireless is at 192.168.*.* however the wan ports are 172.27.*.* The issue is if I'm using my Sagemcom gateway wireless my house devices do not recognize devices on the other network like using AirPlay the phone doesn't connect to the TV not being on the same network.
