dlink wireless networking issues

Firstly, this is how my setup works:-

ADSL MODEM
to
DLINK wireless router di-624 rev c
to
External Aerial
to
External aerial
to
DLINK access point 2000ap+ in client mode
to
DLINK wireless router di-624 rev b
to
My computer finally.

The problem is my computer can see all the devices, log on into their html
settings pages, including the ADSL modem, but i cannot gain access to the
internet.

The 2nd wireless router (rev B) has dhcp disabled, thus leaving my computer
to log on with a static IP set in TCP/IP in windows xp.

How can i gain access to the net?? Please help me,

Thankfully

Stuart

Is MAC address filtering enabled and possibly keeping your computer from
having access? Would placing the AP in bridge mode be better?

Ok, lets give this a try

#1 Router that *should* nat 192.168.0.something. I don't remember the
DLink defaults, but it could be something like 192.168.0.227 as its
addy. ( The dlink uses the IP you get from your ISP for its IP with
another for the gateway at the ISP -> x.x.x.1 usually.

Is this setup as a BRIDGE?

#2 Router should get an IP, netmask, gateway, and dns from the #1
router. You can verify this in the menu setup.

Your computer should get a different network from #2 router. If it
doesn't you won't get out. You may have to manually set the routers
LOCAL IP to something different than the local network of #1 Router (
use 192.168.100.something. Your computer's gateway addy should point to
the IP address of #2 Router with the proper netmask.

Why do you have #2 router by the way? If you are only connecting ONE
computer, you don't need #2. If you have multiple computers attached to
#2, disregard that unless the bridge is capable of dealing with multiple
MAC on the local side. Then you would get the IP addy from #1 router.

Usually a DSL modem is a bridge. Are you sure that it isn't a
Bridge/Router combo? In this neck of the woods, verizone ships Routers
( most of the time ), and usually they work out of the box with no user
intervention.

If you can only bride ONE MAC, you do need the router portion; use DHCP
as it works. In this case, you need to make sure that both routers are
not NAT'n the same networks. This setup *should* work as long as
everybody is pointing to the correct upsteam addys. I am not totally
familiar with these specific DLinks, so grant me some leeway. For
instance, lets assume that you ISP's gateway is 102.81.100.1/24 then:

dsl modem bridges #1 router dhcp wan address from ISP

#1 router wan ip -> 102.81.100.152 with 102.81.100.1 as the gw
#1 router lan ip -> 192.168.0.227/24
#1 router dhcp could be 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.11
#1 router gets dns from ISP and could be 102.81.100.2

DLINK 2000AP bridges #2 dhcp wan address ( from #1 router.

#2 router wan ip is 192.168.0.11 with 192.168.0.227 as the gw
#2 router lan ip is 192.168.100.227/24
#2 router dhcp could be 192.168.100.1 to 192.168.100.11
#2 router gets dns from #1 router -> 192.168.0.227

Computer gets dhcp addy from #2 -> say 192.168.100.11 along with
192.168.100.227 as the gateway and 192.168.100.227 as dns.

You should be able to ping both sides of each router, along with the ISP
gateway ( and the rest of the Internet ) with this setup. Confused?
Using non-routable addys gives you lots of leeway as you don't have to
break up a class C into subnets. Routing is pretty easy as long as you
follow some simple rules.
1. each network must be unique
2. each network has a default gateway
3. you can't reuse a network later down the line.

I need more than the 1 computer connected to router 2, a laptop and pocket
pc.

Would it help if i moved the access point over in building 2 so a ethernet
cable is fed to that from router 1, so the external aerial connects straight
to the back of that?? then to router 2????

If you can 'see' the #1 router and the modem, the network looks like it
is working, but not quite configured correctly.

Are you setup as below -> maybe different numbers than mine?

what's the model number of your dlink 2000 ? dwl-2000AP+ ??
and is it plugged into a LAN port on that di624b
