Looking for a little advice as to best way to set up a BT2700HGV router to replace an old Thomson one that has started to drop local network connections. I have a server & 3 PC's that are on their own fixed private 10.x.x.x network, the hub/switch for which has a single ethernet connection to the BT2700. This then has its wireless & associated DHCP set up to work off of a separate 192.168.x.x network range for anything else more public that connects wirelessly. This was catered for on the old Thomson router by it being assigned 2 IP addresses, one for each network range. I cannot find any way to do this on the BT2700, the default 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 is the same setup as the old router and works fine for any DHCP supplied machine but without also being given an address in the 10.x.x.x range, none of the private network machines can get out to the internet (even though the default gateway is manually set to the address of the router).
Can anyone shed any light on this & maybe also let me know whether this is the optimum & most secure way to configure this anyway to protect & hide the internal network. I also need to eventually set up a simple VPN connection through to there server, so could someone confirm this to be possible with this unit before I spend too much time on this?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
