I've got my firebox as 192.168.111.1 and I gave the Linksys 192.168.111.5. I
still can't access the Linksys.

When I hook directly up to it I can access it.

Do I need to put it in bridge mode or something?

Can I use it as an access point?

Thanks.

Bryce.

All I did was disable DHCP on the BEFW11S4 v1 router, set the device IP to
192.168.111.2, took the router out of *gateway* and put it into *router*
mode, configured the router to use static the IP set-up pointing to the WG
at 192.168.111.1 -- not using DHCP setup that would be to obtain IP from
the WG for the router, and connected it to a LAN port on my WG Firebox III
SOHO 6. I could access the Linksys router at 192.168.111.2 with the
browser.

The Linksys just became a wire/wireless AP *switch*.

I'll give it another shot then. Since somebody has done it, obviously I've
just set something up wrong.

Thanks.

Bryce.
