ok, I found another extra router in my closet (had many before) and hook it up to the laptop behind the switch. The whole circuit is as Modem -> switch -> 2 routers -> several computers on each routers. Let call PC1 on router1 and laptop on router2.
I can make them all work but not at the same time. I have to connect the modem directly to each router and reboot the modem in order for it to work, but if I connect modem to router1 and reboot modem, router2 is out. Then I connect modem to router2 and reboot the modem, router1 is out. If I have the whole circuit connected and reboot the modem, nothing works. I have been switching back and forth connecting the modem to each router multiple times but can't have both working. I use to be able to do this when I had DSL but now I can't with cable.
Anyone has any good hint?
Thanks.
