Im having a problem with my home network and I cant for the life of me
figure it out. Here is the set up:
PC2-------Linksys NR041 Router-----PC1-----Cable Modem
First off I am doing this so PC1 can have faster transfer speeds by avoiding
using NAT. I have single outside global IP address dynamically assigned to
PC1. PC1 has two ethernet cards, one connecting to the modem the other
connected to the router. The IP's for the NIC's directly connected to the
router have statically assigned ip addresses in the 192.168.1.0 network.
Both PC's belong to the same workgroup, and in fact can communicate with
each other just fine. PC1 can acces the internet just fine, PC2 cannot.
PC1 is set up as a computer that connects directly to the internet and has
computers connect through it.
PC2 is set up as a computer that connects to the internet via a residental
gateway.
The router is set up as a 'router' not a 'gateway' as are the options.
Changing it to a gateway seemingly has no effect.
I believe the problem is that there is no route, default or otherwise in the
router to forward traffic to the modem. Any static route I put in doesnt
seem to work.
The NIC on PC2 has an IP address of 192.168.1.74 /24
The NIC on PC1 has an IP address of 192.168.1.75 /24 (connects to the
router)
The NIC on PC1 has an IP address of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (connects to the
internet)
The router has an IP address of 192.168.1.1 /24
Pings from PC1 will hit every address in the network.
Pings from PC2 can hit every address but the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx network.
Any ideas?
