I have a network set-up not unlike the one in the picture (courtesy of PortForward.com).
In my case, R1 is a 4G modem/ router (placed up in the gods for best 4G signal) and R2 is the 'domestic' router serving the house.
Occasionally I need to connect to R1 (perhaps just to re-boot it) but typing in its lan-side IP doesn't work, I just get a 404.
R2 is running DD-WRT (only 'cos it came with it) so plenty of scope for fiddling with settings.
I (think) I could simply switch off DHCP on R2, but I don't want R1 handling all the routing work, as that seems to cause it to hang.
R1: LAN IP 192.168.1.36
R2: WAN IP 192.168.1.107
R2: LAN IP 192.168.1.1
Any hints? Can't help thinking it should be simple.
TIA.
