Fonera via Linksys Router
So I finally got my new Fonera working with a connection via the old Fon enabled Linksys router. This was really a pain I have to say. The problem is that the Linksys works on the IP 192.168.10.1 and that’s the IP that the Fonera grabs itself too it seems. At the same time it gave my Laptop 192.168.10.111 which is the IP I gave my Mac Mini. All hell broke loose 
After lots of changes that didn’t work, and a hack of the box to get SSH access to see what the routing tables are saying (yes this is denied, but please, then make it work out of the box :)), I am finally up and running. The route to the main Linksys just didn’t get created it seems.
Now I set the Fonera to static IP at 192.168.10.2 and then gave the network a new range at 192.168.11.1 and enabled DHCP again. Now I am in on myplace, can ping everything, surf, and even have access to my private LAN which is great because there is a network attached storage there. All seems to be good now.
Oh and by the way. Connecting to wifi.fon.com didn’t work. I just registered via fon.com. Ah well, after registering the buffalo replacement at Ormigo I will then have 4 routers.
Which Fonero hack/tutorial did you use?
I had trouble getting it to work a month or two ago. Would really like to turn ssh on
To get SSH access try this:

This should be enough to try to find out why it does not work.
[...] look at my last 10 posts to see how relevant my ads are. I have router management and dsl ads on my Fonera post, the unddu.de post has social networking in there, my first post about mymuesli.com has VC stuff [...]
I have a Linksys WRT54G V1.1 I loaded the Fon firmware and nothing works. I can access the firmware config, but since my ISP allocates the IP automatically (DHCP?), I can’t see what else I should need to do, there’s no way this formware gains access to the Internet, whereas the Linksys firware does without problem. I am no expert, but this idea seems to be dead in the water to me. Any ideas?
