Setting Up: Advanced

Linksys EA-Series

This is a complex process, so this procedure assumes that you have 

some networking knowledge.

1.  Determine the IP address range for your upstream (office or building) 

network. 
To determine the address range by using a Windows computer:
a.  Connect your computer into your upstream network’s router.
b.  Click  Start,  Run,  type  CMD,  then  click  OK. The  command  prompt 

window appears.

c.  Type ipconfig, then press Enter. 

Although you can determine your computer’s IP address in 

many ways, this method is quick and relatively easy.

d.  Take  note  of  the  IP  address.  In  this  example,  the  IP  address  is 

192.168.100.192.

To determine the address range by using a Mac computer:
a.  Connect your computer into your upstream network’s router.
b.  From the Dock, click System preferences, click Network, then click 

Ethernet in the window to the left. A network status window opens.

c.  Take  note  of  the  IP  address.  In  this  example,  the  IP  address  is 

192.168.100.139.

Example: The above examples show that upstream IP addresses are on 

the 192.168.100.0 network. (The “0” indicates the entire network.) Your 

upstream  network’s  address  may  be  different.  The  default  address  of 

your new Linksys router is 192.168.1.1. In setting up one router behind 

another, you must make sure that the local network on your new router is 

different than the network of your upstream router. In the above example, 

because the default local network on your Linksys router 192.168.1.0 is 

on a different subnet than the office network’s 192.168.100.0, you will be 

able to place your Linksys router behind the other router.
