two local networks



I know this must be obvious to anyone who does this all the time, but I can't figure it out and following a googling session I ended up trashing my network, so I figured I'd better ask.

I am trying to install a Belkin wireless print server and it's got a web interface factory setting on 192.168.2.253 which I currently can't browse with my setup as it is (request timed out).

I'm working on my LAN's gateway server, which has two NICs, one for the local network eth0 and one for the internet.

The Belkin print server is switched on, but as said, I can't browse it presumably because my LAN is set up on 192.168.0.x

To make things possibly more complicated, the gateway is using iptables but I'm not convinced it's iptables causing the problem. Packets should be able to get straight out of the gateway internal interface as long as they don't come from the external interface.

I'm more expecting it to be my subnet mask that I need to change, but like I mentioned first, when I tried changing that I downed the whole network, which looks like this:

eth0      inet addr:192.168.0.2  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1

eth1      inet addr:86.182.225.179  Bcast:86.182.225.179  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1


Any inspiration gratefully received.

Thanks
Adam
