how to set gateway on rv110w

[mjonila]

Hi

I have RV110W wireless router and such configuration:

VLAN1 - 192.168.0.253/255.255.255.0  - DHCP relay from internal server

VLAN3 - 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0 - DHCP server

LAN cable is connected to LAN1 interface. WAN interface is not used as this device is only wireless access point.

I set up 2 SSIDs : Wireless1 and Wireless3 and mapped them to VLAN1 and VLAN3 accordingly.

Everything works with Wireless1 network, when clients connect, they receive IP address from internal server with correct settings.

Wireless3 network (in VLAN3) is provided with DHCP settings from RV110W itself. Clients receive IP address f.i. 192.168.1.100/255.255.255.0 and gateway : 192.168.1.1 ------- THIS IS INCORRECT as this is RV110W's IP address and gateway in VLAN3 is 192.168.1.254.

I browsed all configuration in RV110W web console but could not find where to set default gateway for VLAN3.

PLEASE HELP

Hi Marius,

VLAN3 - 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0 - DHCP server

This appears to be the issue. Your VLAN 1 is relay set while you did not change the VLAN 3 attribute. It seems the DHCP is coming from the router.

Under Networking -> Lan - Lan Configuration, where you see Vlan should be a drop down for you to see the VLAN attribute for the IP address and DHCP setting

Thanks for answer Tom.

I know the feature you are describing. I intentionally use onboard DHCP server for VLAN3, because this is my "guest" wireless network and users should have ONLY internet access and no connection to internal network. VLAN1 is internal network and in it I use my server to supply computers with IP addresses (hence I use relay DHCP for VLAN1).

So again, how to set specific default gateway for RV110W LAN interface ?

Or allow RV110W's DHCP server to provide my own gateway for computers instead of giving it's own address ?

PLEASE HELP

What is the VLAN 1 ip address scheme? Can you post a screen shot of your vlan 1 and vlan 3 lan configuration pages? Can you make a screen shot of the wireless basic settings page?

Here are screenshots of VLAN1 VLAN3 and Wireless basic settings page.

[Tom Watts]

Marius, on your screen shot for VLAN 3, the local IP is 192.168.1.1.

Wireless3 network (in VLAN3) is provided with DHCP settings from  RV110W itself. Clients receive IP address f.i.  192.168.1.100/255.255.255.0 and gateway : 192.168.1.1 ------- THIS IS  INCORRECT as this is RV110W's IP address and gateway in VLAN3 is  192.168.1.254.

yeah I know. so what ? the question is not how to set RV110W device's IP address. The question is how to set default gateway which is 192.168.1.254

[Tom Watts]

On the vlan 3 screen shot, change the ip from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254.

The device is not intended to work as an access point, the router is the default gateway

If I do as you suggest, my original router (on 192.168.1.254) says it found IP address conflict and nothing works. I believe you cannot set 2 devices with the same IP address.

if rv110w is intended to be the router then how to set default static route in it's routing table that all traffic would go to 192.168.1.254 ? I cannot do that either

[Tom Watts]

Correct, Marius,  The device can work as an access point but it is a router and designed to be a router. To have the device as an AP, you must have the DHCP disable, otherwise the gateway will only be the router which is unavoidable. I think this is where the misunderstanding lies.

The router provides a very basic DHCP service as you already know and it does not have the flexibility of let's say a Windows Server. Most routers do not have that function.

see screenshot of what routing table I currently have. As you see there is this gateway 0.0.0.0. How to change this value to 192.168.1.254 ?

[Tom Watts]

Marius, what exactly is your topology?

-Tom

[mjonila]

here is my tolopogy, simple as ABC. Again the question is how to set default static route in RV110W routing table that all traffic would go to 192.168.1.254 ?

[Tom Watts]

Marius,

Based on your picture, you have a different problem. Spanning tree. It looks like you're running redundant links there. I wouldn't be surprised if the lowest cost path is in discard state on the switch.

Additionally, to touch your question you can make a static route on networking -> routing and point 192.168.1.1 to the 192.168.1.254 if the router allows it. But also, you will never get your default gateway on the computer to show as 192.168.1.254 since the router is the DHCP. And, even so, the 192.168.1.254 is on the same subnet, there shouldn't be anything needed.

THIS IS THE ERROR MESSAGE I GOT TRYING TO LOGIN INTO MY RV1OOW Which i converted to ACCESS POINT. 

"'You do not have sufficient access to the Web based administration of this router. This is caused by your current VLAN membership. Please notify your system administrator.""

I have 2 VLAN as well in My Network. VLAN 1 picks IP Address from a DHCP Server(192.168.100.1) While VLAN 2 uses an internal IP From the RV100W. 192.168.200.1. I am also having difficulties access My Router RV100W.

Kindly Help out please
