I'm redoing my home network and running into some problems.
We have dsl and 5 static ip addresses.
What I would like to do is have 2 lans with routers and 3 others for various other things (i.e. we haven't decided yet).
I have the neccessary ip's, gateways, subnet mask, and dns servers.
I have hooked router1 and router2 (each with a different ip) up to the hub that hooks up to the modem.
Here is the problem, when I am trying to use both I have collision problems.
For testing, I've been having been running pings to my isp on a computer on each router. One will ping fine for 20 pings or so and then timeout for a while. The other router will behave in the opposite manner.
So to finish, any suggestions on how to clear up this mess to it runs correctly?
Really Crude drawing of the network:
Code:
| Modem | ----------------> | HUB|
--------------------------- -----------------------

|Router 1| | Router 2|
