A 'maybe' hard question about Routers (BEFSR41s)

[BrazilianBoy]

I have in my house two BEFSR41s connected to two different modems (one DSL and one Cable).

They were both running different LANs up to now (10.10.1.1 for one and 10.10.2.1 for the other one). I have 3 clients under each router, which are not using DHCP (ex: Router 1 --> Client 1: 10.10.1.10, Client 2: 10.10.1.11, Client 3: 10.10.1.12 and Router 2 --> Client 1: 10.10.2.10, Client 2: 10.10.2.11, Client 3: 10.10.2.12).

Everything seems to be working just fine, but now, I am trying to conected those two LANs together. I still want to have the 3 clients from each router to connected to the internet using their respective modems/routers (DSL and Cable), but I want all the computers to see each other, like in a big LAN.

I've been messing around the Dynamic Routing/Static Routing under Advanced properties of both routers, but I don't seem to be able to achieve my goal. Will I need a bridge? Will I need another hardware or this is a configuration issue?

Can you guys help me with that one? Thanks in advance,

Actually, you could put all of your PCs on the same sub-net (exe: 10.10.1.x) and just use different gateways to the routers (exe: 10.10.1.1 and 10.10.1.2). This would allow you to have all of the PCs see each other and they would still use the Internet connections that you want them to use. You would just have to set each PC to use the appropriate gateway.

Hum... never thought about that... I guess i'll try and let you know if it works or not...

Thank you nightowl
