MTNL Triband (no static IP assigned to me.). Using Dlink DSL 502 router. LAN IP being 192.168.1.1. WAN IP is what the outsider would use to get in. Connected to Netgear Router. (WAN IP = 192.168.1.2, LAN IP = 192.168.0.1). Machines are connected to this netgear router as 192.168.0.X)
you cant access a 192.168.x.x address over the internet - you need the dynamic ip
Yes, I know that, but perhaps you misunderstood. Or perhaps i left out an important bit of information.
Here is how the earlier setup worked (with tata indicom). Everything remained the same except the DSL router provided by the ISP.
By enabling bridging mode all requests in the dsl router were routed to my internal router. (netgear wireless ). Because of bridging, I put the static public IP that I was assigned by TATA in my netgear router as the Internet/WAN IP.
The internal router has port forwarding options where depending on the request it is routed to the appropriate 192.168.0.xx machine.
Ofcourse now with MTNL i have to use 192.168.1.2 as my WAN IP because 192.168.1.1 is the gateway (which is the lan IP of the dsl router) and it also has a dynamic public IP. How do I bridge over from the mtnl router to the netgear one?
There has to be a way of forwarding the requests to the right machine via the two routers?
-thanks abhishek
