Quick question. I am a noob to IT, but I’m getting along quite well. I’m in the middle of a conundrum right now, though. We recently had problems with our WAP while I was on vacation, and our newest “IT Guy” came out to look at things.(He works mainly at our other location) While he was here he decided he didn’t like and/or understand how/why we had things set up here, and went around disabling/changing/deleting things. Well, now we have no wireless access! We have a SonicWall Firewall, that was in conjunction with a SonicPoint WAP. Now we have a Linksys WRT54G in place of the SonicPoint. It worked for about a week and went down. I talked to our IT consultant, told him everything that had happened, and he said the problem is that the Linksys wont pass DHCP through from our server (we had two subnets set up, one for wired and one for wireless. The wireless subnet was deleted by Captain Brainpower). I told our guy what the consultant said, and he replied “He’s an idiot I’ve set up thousands of networks like that and never had a problem”. So, my question is: Will the Linksys pass DHCP through, or not? In either case, what should I be looking for to get the wireless back up?! Thanks a million!!!
