Hello,
I have a question regarding dnsmasq on an asus router running merlin.
My ISP Modem is setup without running a DHCP server on 192.168.1.1 while my ASUS Router is setup with a running DHCP server on 192.168.1.2
I connected my Asus router via a LAN port to one of the modems LAN port.
The idea is that I want to be able to use all the lan ports on my modem as well as on my asus router as one network. If I were to use the WAN port on the asus router this would make the modem a different network.
So now I have my router handing out DHCP Addresses to the clients plugging in to either the LAN ports on the modem or the LAN ports on the router.
The DHCP Server tells the client their gateway is on 192.168.1.1 which is the modem. So all traffic goes directly to the modem.
I do however want to be able to use DNSMasq to set some local domains using the asus router. This is something my modem cannot do.
I tried setting this up by sending the clients the router as DNS but it doesnt seem to work. When in the past I had my router set as gateway and the WAN port connected this worked fine.
Is there any way this could be setup to work?
Thanks for the help!
Jasper
