How do I set up a second router?

Question

I have a Speedtouch 510 modem/router and it is set up with fixed IP's for a Mac and another PC and some NAT settings for iChat etc.

Now I want to add a Draytek Vigor 2200 WE wireless router, so I can use my laptop with it.

The laptop 'sees' the wireless Draytek network, but how do I configure (and cable) the Draytec and the Speedtouch so that I can use the internet connection via my laptop?

modem/router > vigor 2200WE > powerbook

If you know a good webpage about this that would be OK too! Thanks.

Answer 1

You can not use two routers in a single network. You need a wireless access point plugged into your first router.

Answer 2

in order to get this to work, you should have the wireless as the primary router. unless you are going to hook up more than 4 computers, i would just have the wireless hooked up. you can have 3 hardwired and a wireless computer hooked up. it is not necessary to have both type of routers to run 2 types of connections.
