How to setup 2x FR114P ProSafe Firewall Routers in the Network
Hello, how can I setup all 3 routers in my network? I have following routers: 1.) the router from my Internet Service Provider --> IP-Adress is 192.168.192.1 Subnetmask 255.255.255.0 ...
Hi mwolf,
Welcome to the community! :)
For me, since the main router is the one that came with the Internet Service Provider, what I will do is I will configure the 2 FR114P as switches to extend the local network. I'm going to access the web-GUI of the 2 FR114P then on the LAN IP Setup page, I will set a static IP address on the 2 FR114P that is within the IP range of the main router the came from your Internet Service Provider. Then, I will uncheck "Use router as DHCP server" still on the LAN IP Setup page on the 2 FR114P. Then, I'll connect the 2 FR114P to the LAN ports of the main router. In this way, the 2 FR114P are now set as pass-through switches. and I could connect more PCs on the local network.

Thanks a lot for your help!
I´ll try this later after work.
Hi DanaA,
sorry I had no time to try it out yet, but I´ll try it later... if it works I let you know... if not too. ;-)I just want to follow-up on this again. Were you able to try to set up the FR114P firewall routers? If yes, kindly let us know the result.

Hi, sorry for the late response.
I´ve tried it but it didn´t work yet.The ISP Router has following IP: 192.168.192.1
The "FR114P Router 1" has following IP 192.168.0.1
The "FR114P Router 2" has following IP 192.168.0.100
Should I send some screenshots from all routers?
