So I've been told by network designers that this will work.
I need to provide multiple users with printing capability trough a single printer.
The network that the printer is provided with must be isolated from any other networks to enable users to print without authentication to the network. But the users must also be able to connect to the internet.
In a test environment, I am using a linksys wrt54g as the dhcp source local network,(wifi disabled, all physically connected) and using a wifi hotspot as an internet access network.
Ip information shows correct addressing for both interfaces (private network on wired adapter, public wifi on wireless) but while I can see devices connected to the physical network and ping them, I cannot see or ping anything on the public side, including the gateway.
I was thinking that this 'solution' is not going to work, am I all wet?
If it will work, what changes client side should I make in order to access both paths?
Thanks in advance [H]!
