Hello,
I have three routers:
(Router # 1)
AT&T Uverse RG (default settings, set by AT&T)
SSID = "Uverse"
DHCP enabled
Basically, I only use this as the internet gateway for my other two routers.
LAN IP = 192.168.1.254
(Router # 2)
Asus RT-AC56R (Merlin firmware)
SSID = "VPN"
DHCP enabled
WAN IP = 192.168.1.252
LAN IP = 10.0.0.1
(As the name suggests) this one connects to a VPN provider so that certain devices can't connect to the internet without going through a VPN.
(Router # 3)
Netgear Nighthawk R7300 (stock firmware)
SSID = "NOT VPN"
DHCP enabled
WAN IP = 192.168.1.253
LAN IP = 192.168.2.1
I use this for regular internet access, netflix, etc.
Both routers have USB hard drives attached and I'm trying to access them across both networks. Can this be done with static routes? Is there a better strategy to employ?
I really like having a dedicated VPN router, so I'd like to keep that. But I wouldn't be opposed to adding new / additional hardware, or re configuring the other two routers.
thanks in advance
