hey!
i have a DLink GLB-502T ADSL2+ Router to which i have 10 computers connected via a switch.This router provides net access to wired connections.I also have a DLink DWL 2100aAP wireless router connected to the SAME switch which provides net access to wireless laptops. Now my question is how do i access the wireless router?? All the WIRED computers connected to switch have IP address ranging from 192.168.1.x - 192.168.1.254 on 255.255.255.0 subnet. I can access the DLink GLB-502T ADSL2+ Router by 192.168.1.1, but how do i access the wireless router?? Its address is 192.168.0.50.. but i cant connect to it as it lies in a different range. I tried changing my ip to 192.168.0.x and then trying to access it but it wont open. I also tried connecting my computer directly to the wireless router and still cant access it. Can anyone pls help?

thanks..

in my opinion ur setup is not the right one
the setup sh be
ISP > wireless router > switch > wired and wireless pcs
config the wifi router as 192.168.1.1
enable dhcp on it, all pcs will get the ip address from wifi router


in ur case if u do not change anything, u must config the ip of wifi router as 192.168.1.X (no other way), that ip sd be removed from the dhcp of wired router
