PAP2T vs RT31P2

[ctaranto]

Thanks. I had it set up that way, and I wasn't getting Phone 1 lit up. The RT administration was only available when a computer was plugged into the RT.

I found this on a vonage forum (who also uses an RT):
http://www.vonage-forum.com/ftopic4206.html

In there, it states:
The best thing to do if you are already using a router is to disable the vonage adaptor's ability to function as a router and just use it as a switch. To accomplish this you can follow the below directions.

1. Disable NAT and DCHP on the vonage adaptor.
2. From the line coming out of your router plug into lan jack 1 in the back of the vonage router.
2. If you have a computer plugged into the vonage adaptor plug it into lan jack 2 on the vonage adaptor.
3. Take the lan jack 3 on the vonage adaptor and plug it into the wan jack of the vonage adaptor.

This will give you the functionality of VOIP by turning the vonage adaptor into just another switch on your network.


So, I've done that.

My WRT is 172.20.0.1
I gave the RT a LAN address of 172.20.0.5
I gave the RT a WAN address of 172.20.0.3 (via static DHCP on the WRT)
I turned off DHCP on the RT
I turned off NAT on the RT
I plugged a wire from the WRT to the RT LAN
I plugged a wire from the RT LAN to the RT WAN

I can access the RT from a wireless connect on the WRT.
In the Status/Router and Status/Local Network pages on the RT, all are as expected.
On the front of the RT, LAN1, LAN3, and WAN (Internet) lights are lit.

I still do not have Phone 1 lit.

Access to your WRT router:
Click on the status tab (the right most on the top), and then "Local network", and then click on the "DHCP Client Table" button.

Post here, tell us what you get?

I'm running Tomato, so I don't know what info you're asking for.

Do you want the Static DHCP list, or the list of connected devices?

Check out the attachment RT31P2.pdf. Can you setup your RT just like that?

I changed the setting to match the pdf. But the laptop isn't getting an IP from the RT.

How do you setup your laptop? DHCP or STATIC?

Open a dos command prompt:

run the command: ipconfig /all

I have two laptops. One is running XP, but only has wireless (no driver for the internal wired port). The other is running Ubuntu. It's set up for DHCP (and works fine at work).
