   Hi,   
      
   As the subject line indicates I have the following equipment ready to   
   install (first two boxes at work and 2nd two at home). What I want to do is   
   be able to link my PC at home to my work network via ADSL, to map network   
   drives on a NT4/Win2k domain, perhaps get emails from the exchange server   
   etc. I also want to purchase the same equipment for 2 of our satellite   
   offices and link them up in the same way. The product information only   
   really indicates how to set up the FVS318 to connect to a modem, not the   
   Netgear DG834 routers I have in place and me not being a network guru, am   
   unsure on how to get all this equipment configured correctly.   
      
      
   I currently have at the office, broadband (Nildram 2mb officepro, fixed IP)   
   comming into a 'DG384G modem/router/switch' combo box and then that plugs   
   into the FVS318, which in turn plugs into the office LAN switches.  The   
   DG384G get the ISP info via DHCP, has a LAN IP of 192.168.0.1 and gives the   
   FVS318 a DHCP'd WAN IP address of something like 192.168.0.2 The FVS318 then   
   has a LAN IP of 10.1.1.1 and provides DHCP addresses to all the PC's on the   
   office LAN, in the 10.1.1.30 to 10.1.1.230 range.  The servers I want to   
   connect too (win2k / NT4) have fixed LAN IP address of something like   
   10.1.1.240, 10.1.1.241 etc.   
      
   I did plan on setting the home end up in a similar fashion.  broadband   
   (nildram fixed IP) comes into my DG834, FVS318 plugged into it and then plug   
   my home PC's directly into the FVS318...   
      
   Does anyone have any technical information available that would assist me in   
   my configuration or can you see any problems with what im trying to do?   
   Theres a good hour or so's round trip in the car between me and the office   
   so I want to try and get it working 1st time :)   
      
      
   Many thanks in advance,   
   Matt Deards.
