We have a Cisco 2800 Series Router, 2 Cisco SG200-50FP PoE switches and 2 D-Link DIR-890L WiFi routers. We will have a block of 5 IP addresses from our ISP
The way I am thinking is, I plugged the fiber connection via Ethernet cable into the Cisco router and then connect it to switch 1 and have that switch connected to switch 2. Then I was going to have the D-Link WiFi routers to connect to one of the switches or one on each switch. I am trying to plan this the best way I can. The new location is being wired from the drop/jack in the cubicles and offices for phones all the way to the patch panel in the networking closet. We will be using cloud based VoIP and internet over the fiber. We will also have 2 multi-function printers that will be wired connections. I can also say most will daisy chain their laptops from the phones. That is sort of my back up plan if I can't get the D-Links to work properly because I am concerned about DHCP/NAT due to the setup I am thinking of router>switch>switch>WiFi routers. Please feel free to ask me any questions to better understand what I am trying to accomplish. I sure can use all the technical help and advice I can get on setting this up. Thank you and god bless.
