Any pointers ?
as someone other said, you should setup NAT, there should be enough information on the wiki, but basically iptabales -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 192.168.2.0/24 -j MASQUERADE on PC1 should do it, but there might be better ways ;) (note that you need some iptables stuff in the kernel) one other thing, if nat doesn't work, some wireless aps (i'm thinking about the 192.168.2.1) need to have correctly set up default gateway etc... they sometimes try to be to smart and I had sometimes problems when the router was connected as a wireless client to them... btw, why don't you use the wireless on the ROUTER1 (doesn't seem you want to do any firewalling on the PC1)? It might make things much simpler... you could setup the other ap to connect to it in client mode and all your network could then be on the 192.168.1.0/24 and I would gues that your provider NATs the whole subnet... yoyo > > > 192.168.1.1 > +-+ +------------+ > | |-----------| Router1 |=========ASDL conn > | | +------------+ > | | > | | > | | > | | 192.168.1.23 +-------+ 192.168.2.43 > | |------------------| PC1 |----)))............. > +-+ +-------+ . > . > Passive Hub . > 192.168.2.1 . > +------------+ . > | Router2 |--))).. > +------------+ > | > | > +------+ > | PC2 | > +------+ > 192.168.2.24 > > -------------------------------------------------------------- > Router1 (UTSStarCom ISP supplied) : > - router IP 192.168.1.1 > - wireless enabled but not used > > -------------------------------------------------------------- > PC1: (gentoo) > > - eth0 (192.168.1.23) and wireless (192.168.2.43) > - no iptables configuration > - routing table entries > Kernel IP routing table > Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use > Iface > 192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 ra0 > 192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 > eth0 > loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo > default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 > eth0 > > > # echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward > > > # Kernel Networking options > # > CONFIG_UNIX=y > CONFIG_XFRM=y > CONFIG_INET=y > CONFIG_IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER=y > CONFIG_ASK_IP_FIB_HASH=y > CONFIG_IP_FIB_HASH=y > CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_VERBOSE=y > CONFIG_INET_XFRM_MODE_TRANSPORT=y > CONFIG_INET_XFRM_MODE_TUNNEL=y > CONFIG_INET_XFRM_MODE_TRANSPORT=y > CONFIG_INET_XFRM_MODE_TUNNEL=y > CONFIG_TCP_CONG_BIC=y > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Router2 (WRT54GL) > - router IP 192.168.2.1 > - wireless enabled and used > -------------------------------------------------------------- > PC2 (gentoo) > - static IP address 192.168.2.24 > - routing table entries > > Kernel IP routing table > Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface > 192.168.2.43 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0 > 192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 > 192.168.1.0 192.168.2.43 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 > loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo > default 192.168.2.43 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
