I've got a Linksys WET11 wireless bridge plugged into an Empeg using the crossover mode. This WET11 is connected wirelessly to my router in the back of the apartment. The gateway for both devices is set to my router. Both have static IP's. *This Works*
However, I want to connect my WET11 to a 5 port switch (I assume in non-crossover mode) this switch then runs ethernet to the Playstation2, DirecTivo, and the Empeg. The WET11 then connects wirelessly to my router as before. The gateway for all devices is set as before, to the router. All devices have static IP's .. *This does not work* ... I can't ping any of the devices on that switch from across the wireless network (except for the WET11).
In theory and as advertised, this should work. However questions arise when they don't tell me how to configure each of the other clients on that switch. Do you think I should set my gateway to the WET11 for those devices?
Any input on a real network bridging setup with the WET11 is greatly appreciated.
