I am setting up a small network with a network printer. This is on a residential connection.
The router connected to the modem is on IP 10.0.0.1, provided by comcast. I am connecting to this wirelessly using a laptop.
This works until I try step 2. Step 2 is connecting with a cat5 cable to a router. I have disabled wireless on this router for now. This router is on IP 192.168.1.1. Both connect and I see an Internet connection on my wireless one still.
However, when I try to browse a web page, it tells me I am not connected. I am connecting the second router so i can connect other computers to my network printer.
I did a tracert to google.com in both situations. When connected wirelessly only, it pings via 10.0.0.1. When I add the wired, it reports 1 192.168.1.1 reports: Destination net unreachable.
How can I prevent this disconnection from happening?
