Re: problem setting up a local network

is B's IPaddr 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.100.1??
That's a difficult question, because actually I've never understood what happens with the ADSL drivers I use! Anyway, when I connect to internet with B I get a ppp0 interface (the ADSL modem is USB so no ethernet interfaces used) and the routing table setted up as I wrote. Actually I don't know where 192.168.100.1 IPaddr, I only know that it appears also when I do "ifconfig": 


lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1

ppp0      Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol

          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:7 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:5 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

          RX bytes:417 (417.0 b)  TX bytes:180 (180.0 b)
The 192.168.1.1 IPaddr should be the address of B in the local network I'd like to install. 

I hope to have been clearer!


Thanks again
