DVR and Wireless Gaming Adapter, help with set up?Hello,
I have virgin media cable internet in my living room and a DVR (records CCTV footage) in my bedroom. The DVR has a built in web server which allows me to view my CCTV recording from anywhere on the net. To get this to work i have to be able to connect the DVR to the cable internet connection and configure some NAT. Therefore i went out and brought a Belkin Wireless G router + Belkin Gaming Adapter (model below) I attached the router to the cable modem and then used my wireless enabled laptop to confirm the wireless router is working all OK. I also enabled WPA (TKIP) encryption on the router. All worked OK. I then went to my bedroom and configured the gaming adapter (using desktop) to peer with my secure cable network wireless router downstairs in my living room. This worked fine and my desktop could connect to the internet (I had to assign static ip address and dns to desktop). Looked promising. Then the real crunch, attaching my DVR to the wireless gaming adapter. I configured my DVR with a static ip address and plugged this into the gaming adapter and that’s where it all went wrong :-( No wireless "bridge" is formed from the gaming adpater to the Belkin router. The LAN link lights on the gaming adapter and the DVR are lit (solid) however i cannot connect to the DVR from the internet or locally on MY LAN. The wireless light on the Belkin gaming adapter does not flash and is not lit. Wherease the Belkin routers's wireless light is lit and flashing. I tested this thoroughly but in essence i plugged my laptop into my Belkin router and tried pinging the dvr and no luck... This should work right? Will a firmware update help? What difference is an xb360 to a DVR? (networking wise that is!) Any advice would be much appreciated.
