<p>I am currently practicing the configuration of DHCP servers and routing in Cisco Packet Tracer in preparation for my exam.</p>
<p>My setup consists of two routers, each connected to two switches, with one DHCP server assigned for every two switches. Additionally, there are three PCs connected to each switch.</p>
<p>When I attempt to ping between networks within the same subnet (for example, from PC0 to PC3), the connection is successful. However, when I try to ping between different subnets (for instance, from PC0 to PC6), the ping fails.</p>
<p>Could someone please assist me in resolving this issue?<br /><br /></p>

Hello @freakymayo
Please modify 'server pool' IP address:
-- Modify the third byte with '100' as value, instead of '1'.
Reload DHCP request on on PCs with ipconfig /renew command. After that, PCs 0, 1 and 2 should have Gateway now.
Also, on Router0, add this ip route:
an on Rotuer3 this route:
--
After that, all PCs could be each other!

The subnet of the server 0 is wrong , correct is 255.255.255.240.
And the ip helper-address of interface f0/0 is not neccessary because it is same network .
