| ChinnoDog | I think you are trying to bridge a remote switch or computer to your wifi network with another router. I do that with my Internet connected TV and DVD player in the other room. | 02:36 |
| MobileTurkey | here we go: | 03:01 |
| MobileTurkey | I have my laptop connected to my wifi | 03:02 |
| MobileTurkey | and i have a desktop connected to the laptop via ethernet | 03:02 |
| MobileTurkey | I got it figured it | 03:02 |
| MobileTurkey | just had to add route sand assign a static IP | 03:02 |
| MobileTurkey | the problem now is the xbox 360.... | 03:02 |
| MobileTurkey | i only get 3 options with the 360... | 03:07 |
| MobileTurkey | ip address, gateway and subnet | 03:07 |
| ChinnoDog | MobileTurkey: Are you using your laptop as a router or a bridge? A bridge would be easier and allow you to pass DHCP traffic through to your PC and xbox. | 03:20 |
| MobileTurkey | as a router | 03:21 |
| ChinnoDog | i.e. Everything you plug into your laptop will get its address auto-assigned and be on the same subnet as the rest of your network. | 03:21 |
| MobileTurkey | you can't bridge properly witha wirelss router | 03:21 |
| ChinnoDog | Why not? I do it. | 03:22 |
| MobileTurkey | it won't work for me! | 03:22 |
| MobileTurkey | i get operation unsupported | 03:22 |
| ChinnoDog | It works for me. :D | 03:22 |
| MobileTurkey | using bridge-utils? | 03:22 |
| ChinnoDog | I use a linksys router | 03:22 |
| ChinnoDog | It has custom firmware but I'm pretty sure I could do it with the factory firmware too | 03:22 |
| ChinnoDog | MutantTurkey: idk what the proper tools are to set up the bridge in linux. Just saying, bridge would make your life a lot easier. | 03:25 |
| MobileTurkey | that's the difference buddy | 03:26 |
| MobileTurkey | I've got some po-dunk realtek crapolah | 03:26 |
| MobileTurkey | if I could bridge, I would bridge | 03:26 |
| MobileTurkey | i cannot bridge so I didn't | 03:26 |
| MobileTurkey | overall it hasn't been very hard to do it this way | 03:26 |
| ChinnoDog | MobileTurkey: You can do it with crap routers. Set them to same SSID, same channel, same encryption key. | 04:07 |
| ChinnoDog | And turn off DHCP on the remote router | 04:08 |
| rmg51 | Morning | 09:20 |
