Configure Cisco Router for Internet
Lockedby bob smithers · about 18 years, 7 months ago
I have a complex problem that someone can probably resolve quickly. I have a Cisco 1721 that I’m trying to configure to use an wireless antenna connection. I’ll list the config that I’ve been trying to get to work below using an ethernet WIC. Keep in mind that I have used bogus IP addresses for security reasons in this post. I will be more than happy to issue all of the advertised points if you can help. Thanks!
External IP Address: 10.1.7.50
External Subnet: 255.255.255.240
External Gateway: 10.1.7.51
External Primary DNS: 12.172.204.3
External Secondary DNS: 64.146.3.126Internal IP Scheme
Internal Router Address: 192.168.0.1
Internal Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Internal Client to test: 192.168.0.50Here is the config that I’ve been trying to use. The cisco router will be connecting to an ethernet device connected to the antenna. The external gateway address is this ethernet device.
I really appreciate any help. If you need any further information, please let me know. I will post the config in a follow-up post. Thanks again.

That’s a great question. I’m not sure if I’m running it in bridge mode or not. What would that do for me?

humm, a 1721 WAN is connected to an ethernet device. [Is the WAN port ethernet and your sure it’s ethernet and not DSL or T1 or BRI?]That device also has the antenna connected to it for wireless?
The device is the gateway to the internet. If that device isn’t a router that performs NAT, it will never work. The E0 [the WAN port]on the 1721 is packaged by the 1721 and that is for the subnet that is the device and the 1721. If the device doesn’t repackage the packets for NAT and determine if the packets are not destined for the LAN therefore foward to the next router no traffic will get to the internet.

If you swapped it around and the antenna is on a device like an access point and that is connected to the LAN ports on the Cisco, then the Cisco will function fowarding packets not destined for the LAN to the next router.
If you aren’t getting anything out of the 1721, disable the access list you have because there is an implied deny access in Cisco Access lists [default is to deny when there is no other rule specifically allowing, which you don’t see at the end of the access list]

Yes, it’s deffinetely two ethernet devices connecting together. The router is using and ethernet WIC and it’s connecting to an ethernet radio modem running in a router mode. Line Protocol shows that it’s up, and just can’t get anywhere. I’m so confused on this one.

If the radio modem is running in router mode,and the radio modem antenna has to pickup the signal from the ISP, the modems antenna is the WAN port. If the ISP is providing an IP address to the radio modem/router there should be a WAN status on the radio/modem and a connection made. It will give the ISP assigned public IP address for you, subnet mask and DNS servers and default gateway.
The LAN side of the radio modem/router needs a static IP address, subnet mask and DNS servers.The Cisco router WAN port is then configured with a static IP address, subnet mask with your ISP DNS server address[es] and the default gateway is the radio modem/router LAN IP address. If the radio modem/router is also a firewall, disable your access list [disable it anyway until you get connectivity].
The Cisco router LAN is a different subnet. Assign the Cisco LAN ethernet interface with an IP address Subnet Mask and ISP DNS servers. Users using the 1721 need to have the default gateway the 1721 LAN IP address.

Note: the WAN 1721 connects to the LAN side of the Radio modem/router both are on the same subnet.
The 1721 LAN and all other devices on the LAN side are on the same subnet [unless you subnet again].
The ISP and the WAN port of the radio modem/router are on the same subnet.
Since you run an access list on the 1721 WAN you should disable it because unless specifically allowed all traffic is blocked. So DNS over port 53 might be blocked if you didn’t have an allow rule in the access list. [you can enable the access list later]. Remember you need DNS traffic to get to the web because when you use a name in the browser, your asking for DNS resolution and if not resolvable on the LAN it’s fowarded out to internet name servers for resolution. If resolved, that info has to get back to the user to display the correct web page.

Try below; probably it will help you locate the issue.
1) Ping your Ethernet 0 interface.
If successful (your LAN and router configuration and interfaces are fine)
2) Ping the next hope (i.e. wireless device Ethernet interface (connected to routers ethernet0)).
If successful (router to wireless dive communication is fine.)
3) Ping wireless device?s wireless interface
If successful, may not be the issue with your setup contact ISP or check the DNS.Try these from your router and test pc.

Thanks for the help. Here is what I can do at the moment.
Can Ping Etherent 0 Interface
Can Ping Next Hop (Wireless Ethernet Interface)
Cannont ping wireless devices’s wireless interface or external DNS servers.

Check weather the wireless interface is UP.
Self ping wireless interface from same wireless router.
if pinging
Check weather the route to 192.168.0.0/24 is properly set to gateway 10.1.7.50 (routers external Ethernet interface) on wireless router.Also check the route on Ethernet router; o/o is routed to 10.1.7.51
This is enough to for get a ping responds from the interface (assuming ICMP is not blocked).
If not pinging- interface may not be UP,
Try if any kind of loop back is possible on the interface, if possible enable loop back and ping. If interface is ok it should respond.Try debug on wireless device ( i don’t know weather that possible with your device)(debug ip packet details -work on Cisco routers. be careful with the debug commands).
Check the ARP table in wireless router. If wireless interface is up and running it should have ARP entry of next hope.
Ask ISP to ping your wireless interface.
good luck,

Your router setting look ok but did not see any speed settings, All so did see any metion of what type of wire less AP. Cisco AP’s like the setting of 100 full duplex for then to work correctly you can ping them connect to them but they will not function correctly. Also did you check to see if the radio side of the AP is up.

Hi,
Your router configration is oky but u have to add default gateway for external network.
Ask Radio Modem for gateway and configure the gateway.
u can reach me at mediainc1978@yahoo.com
other configration is oky.
U r reching up to radiomodem but not to isp because gateway is not configured.

Hi Bob,
Did you solve your wireless router configuration?I just signup for nextweb wierless. I’m using cisco 2611 dual ethernet.
Can you help sent me a working configuration sample.
I need to configuare my network for both Internet access for internal LAN and server web hosting.
I was assign a subnet and a block of IP.
207.47.80.192 Subnet 255.255.255.224
207.47.80.193 is the Antenna IP also my gateway.
Useable IP range 194-222.
I’m plan on using 194-200 for server hosting. 221 and above for Local LAN assign to workstation.
My acc list should allow stand IP traffic like web, FTP, DNS, Email to reach my internet server only IP 194-200. Thank for helping. -

I have a similar problem. I am using my 1721 as a gateway to the internet via DSL. The LAN side is connected to a switch where local PCs get to the internet just fine. The switch is connected to a wireless bridge to a different building. PCs at the remote building can ping the 1721 and use resources on the LAN but they cannot get to the INternet. When I use a simple Linksys consumer level gateway the remote site gets out just fine, but with the faster 1721, the remote site cannot get out to the internet.
I suspect it has something to do with the NAT. Perhaps the 1721 is trying to assign NAT IP numbers to the MAC address and the MAC address for the packets appear to be from the closest wireless bridge device. Does this make any sense?
