I am trying to connect a remote office with small workgroup to our main facility via point-to-point T1 using 2 BlackBox LR120A WAN routers. The workgroup is set up with the usual 192.168.x.x/24 IP scheme and the main facility is 10.23.x.x/16. What should I use for the gateway entries? Something else in the private IP ranges? Do the subnets have to match.

gateways are always the router's address.

subnets don't have to match.

Routers are used to breakup large networks into smaller more managable networks. Traffic not destined for the LAN is routed out the gateway to the next router. Since this is a closed network, firewalls shouldn't be an issue.
