Alright, first off, computer one in my house (which is the one I am posting this on right now) is hooked up to cable through a black cable router (brand unknown) the cable router is then hooked, through an ethernet cable, to the internet port on a linksys wireless router. The router is then connected through ethernet port 4 to the LAN connection of the computer.
What I want to do is allow another computer in my house to access this. I have a second linksys wireless router that is synced to computer two already, and has been used with it before, connected to ethernet port 3 on the first router, then that cord is connected to the internet port of the second router. But, not matter how I connect them, or what I do I can't get anything to recognize the internet.
I've used my DS to try and test the internet on the second router (I can't on the first due to a passcode encryption which is beyond what the DS can do) and it's turned up no connection although it does recognize the router.
And computer two recognizes both routers, but cannot stay connected to router one for more then 5 seconds, then it can no longer associate to that router.
It can however associate and acknowledge router two, but it doesn't recognize any internet.
Now mind you that the first computer is connected directly to the router. The second connects through a wireless router.
I hope all of that was clear enough. Both computer are running XP. Computer two is running linksys software. Computer one was set-up by a friend who knows networking but no longer comes around.
