Hello,
I'm trying to connect a new satellite internet connection to replace the DSL connection I have.
The setup I have currently is DSL/VOIP services so phones and internet being used simultaneously through the ISP's box. Those lines are then connected to a ProCurve Switch 4208v1, which is what all of my devices are connected to. There is an older router that is also connected to that switch that I can login to.
I bought a newer and more advanced wireless router to use with the new satellite modem.
What's the best way to make this cross over?
Do I need to change IP addresses? Can I match the new routers' addresses to the old one?
Is it as easy as unplugging the old router and modem cords and replacing them with the new ones without configuring anything? Do I need to change functions on the Switch?
I can only connect to the new router when directly attached to it with one computer. But when I have the new router also connected to the switch and try connecting to it from a computer only attached to the switch, it can't login.
I'm guessing the switch doesn't like having 2 routers connected to it at the same time.
