Question about Linksys' web-based management.

Post by Sean »

How do you access it if you are using something else (like a Cisco 678 Router) for the DHCP server? I want to configure a few settings on it, and well, I can't access the web-based management because the Cisco Modem gives all the computers in the network an IP address. Anyone know?

LOL. Yeah, I disabled the DHCP in the Linksys Router because that's what the Cisco was programmed to do.

The default IP for the Cisco 678 is 10.0.0.1 and 192.168.1.1 for the Linksys. You need to make sure they are using the same network address scheme.

Well, we needed a wireless hub, and we needed a built in switch. So, we got the Linksys WAP + Router and 4 port switch. Than I just disabled the DHCP, because I don't know how to program the Cisco to use the Linksys as the router.
