OK, sorry, I gave this a better read. I'm not sure how you're going to get
this to work short of something like VPN from the laptops into the SBS, same
as if they were coming in from a remote location. Since a wireless
connection from the laptop to the DLink is bypassing the LAN side of your
network, you're coming in to the SBS through the WAN side (through ISA).
Disregarding the logistics of how you would set this up, I'm not crazy about
the idea anyway. If nothing else, your wireless client PCs are going to
have Internet access that bypasses ISA. What I would do is to put the
Linksys back on the LAN and have the wireless clients connect to that. That
way, all of the client PCs are on the correct side of the SBS and ISA.
Unrelated to your actual question, I would have the wireless clients connect
to the Linksys using WPA or WPA2 encryption - the really good way is this:

Thanks for replying. The wired workstations work fine--it's the
wireless we now have a problem with since the DLINK is providing both
roles now.

Your workstations should be pointing to the SBS internal IP for default

remember if it had a change IP wizard or not, but re-running the ICW
should
do it in any case. Just be careful not to change anything unrelated to
networking.

We are using SBS2000 with ISA Server 2000 with 2 network cards (INT &
EXT). We recently replaced our LAN modem (dialup) & Linksys wireless
router (for use with laptops on local LAN) with a DLINK Wireless 3G
Mobile Broadband router. The DLINK accepts PCMCIA AirCard from our
cellular carrier so we can now have broadband access for Internet. All
is working fine except getting are wireless laptops on the
network/Internet.
Here is our setup - nothing changed with respect to IP
addresses;however, now the DLINK needs to be the DG for the EXT NIC as
well as the wireless connection for the local LAN.
Server NICS:
INT: Local LAN
IP: 192.168.16.2
SN:255.255.255.0
DG: empty
DNS: 192.168.16.2
EXT: Internet
IP: 192.168.1.2
SN:255.255.255.0
DG: 192.168.1.1 = IP address of DLINK Router (used to be IP address
of old LAN dialup Modem)
DNS:192.168.16.2
Workstations (including laptops,printers)
IP: 192.168.16.x
SN:255.255.255.0
DG:empty
DNS:192.168.16.2
DLINK Router - IP = 192.168.1.1
The laptops can connect to the Dlink wireless router but ISA Server is
no longer accessible. I understand now that the router is in a
different IP address range/subnet (not in the 192.168.16.x). But how do
I change this network so the DLINK is the wireless link and the DG for
the EXT NIC on the server?
Thanks
