I have cable connection and am using a Netgear router to connect multiple
computers for internet access. The router does this by NAT and it all works
fine. All internal computers have 192.168.0.x addresses, and the router
itself is 192.168.0.1.
Now, I'm trying to add a second router by Linksys. Doing this because
Vonage sent me one, and it includes a voip phone jack, which my Netgear
doesn't have. However I don't want to switch the Netgear for the Linksys
because the Linksys doesn't have enough LAN ports for my use.
Therefore I'm trying to figure out how to chain them together so both can be
used. I basically plugged in a cable from one of Netgear's ports and on the
other end I plugged it in to the internet port of the Linksys router. Do I
need to configure anything special on the Linksys side, such as the IP
address, gateway, etc? I'm not able to get to the internet from the Linksys
end. Earlier today it worked, but I really don't know how that happened
because after I changed the IP it stopped working.
