Hello,

I got DSL 2750U ADSL router, it has facility to share USB disk through the same. I did shared USB drive and it does allow accessing same from the PC to which it is connected through LAN cable and to PCs having wifi connection.

My problem is, I have LAN through DES 1016D 16 switch from Dlink. My PC thr' which ADSL is connected has second LAN card which is connected to DES 1016D switch. The switch allows LAN to PCs.
The shared USB disk on DSL 2750U is only accessible to PCs having wifi modem, rest PCs having connection through LAN can not access the same.
The ADSL modem has default IP 192.168.1.1 , The LAN adaptor connecting to ADSL has static IP 192.168.1.2. The other Network adaptor connecting to LAN DES 1016D has IP 192.168.0.1

I am able to connect using \\192.168.1.1\dsl_root from my PC, but any other PC in LAN having IPs like 192.168.0.X are not able to get this USB disk. It gives error the network path was not found.

I tried to set 192.168.1.5/255.255.255.0 to My PCs second lan adaptor but it could not get access of \\192.168.1.1\dsl_root

Please help me setting up this to get access of USB disk from PCs in LAN.

I am doing this on Windows Xp SP3.

Thanks in advance for looking my issue.
Regards
Sham

Internet to users of LAN is through proxy server through a PC to which DSL 2750U is connected using network adaptor & Cat 5 cable.
How can I add wireless router as Access Point to wired LAN box DES 1016D ? I tried connecting a CAT 5 cable between DSL 2750U and DES 1016D, this does not provide internet to Users in the LAN , also Users in the LAN could not get access of USB disk on DSL 2750U.
