I have a modem which receives internet connection (192.168.1.1).
On LAN port 1, I have connected a desktop computer (192.168.1.3). On LAN port 2, I have connected a Netgear WIFI router (10.0.0.1).
I am unable to ping 10.0.0.1 from my desktop as there is no route to it.
I have tried to add a route information to the modem, but none of the values seems to be working. These are the fields it has:
- Destination
- Subnet mask
- Next Hop
How do I configure this?
It should be: Dest: 10.0.0.0 Mask: 255.255.255.0 Next Hop: 10.0.0.1. You can also use 255.255.0.0 or (i believe) 255.0.0.0 for the mask if needed but you shouldn't need to. – krowe – 2018-01-13T03:57:21.587
You need to give your router an IP address in the 192.168.1.0 subnet so that it can talk to the modem. Depending on the subnet mask used by the modem, an IP such as 192.168.1.4 for the router would work. A route won't solve your problem! – I say Reinstate Monica – 2018-01-13T04:23:01.417
Unfortunately @krowe's solution is not working.... – Navaneeth K N – 2018-01-13T16:57:56.077
I tried to bring both networks in the same subnet, but can't do that because it conflicts the modem's subnet range – Navaneeth K N – 2018-01-13T16:58:43.713
