I have 2 linksys routers BEFW11S4 V4 up to date on bios updates.

My config:

Router 1: 192.168.1.1 (using all 4 ports -> port 3 goes to "router 2"

Router 2: 192.168.2.1 (Router 1 WAN link goes to router 1)

I can get to the internet from being on either segment.

I can ping from 192.168.2.100 to all device on 192.168.1.0 with no issue and also get to the internet.

Here is the issue: I cannot ping any device on 192.168.2.0 segment.

What do I have to change in the router to be able to ping from 192.168.1.100 to devices on 192.168.2.0 segment.

Any help would be appreciated

Sounds as if you need to change the subnet mask. With a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 (which is set on that model router by default) your two segments would be on different networks.

Take a look at this to see if it helps solve your problem.

I realize the link isn't for your setup exactly, but as it suggests, it might work for your setup.

i did setup the routers on the same network and all is working.

i did want to have two seperate segments

192.168.1.1 gateway to internet and second router hooked off of this.

192.168.1.2 second router hooked off the first.

this worked except that i can not ping anything from 1.1 on segment 2. when i ping all of the traffic goes to the internet.

you need a route in your routing table that tells all traffic destined for network 192.168.2.0 to use the gatweay 192.168.1.2. I don't know whether your model of Linksys router supports this, but you can add static routes to your windows workstations using the ROUTE command.
