Hello list Am about to get an ADSL internet connection... there are two devices available, an ADSL modem and a router... the modem should not have a problem to work (I have one at office), but have a doubt with the router and don't know which device aquire... I have my local network configured with private addresses in the range 192.168.0.* and GATEWAY=192.168.0.x (the ip of the server with firewall)... My question is... would I be able with the router to use it as gateway without assigning dynamic addresses via DHCP? I want to preserve my static private addresses 192.168.0.* with a GATEWAY=... configuration, is that possible? In the worst case I can setup a firewall and use one of my computers as gateway with 2 ethernet cards, one for the router and the other for my LAN... Any comment? Thanks!!
