well the deal is that I didn't want to run another cable from my router. My confusion isn't on getting it to work but rather the numbers that have been assigned from the second router. I was thinking that it might have to do with perhaps they had already been assigned ip addresses but the lfs computer was not previously assigned a number. Is it that the modem is handing out addresses until it gets to 192.168.0.125 and then the router takes over in giving addresses?

You DO NOT need to use another router. One is sufficient and 200 feet of wire would not be a problem. For stronger wireless, you COULD add another WIRED access point to your network. In fact (I) do exactly that. I have a AP near the front of the house, and another near the back. I have about 30 "devices" on the network.... but ONE router / DHCP box is quite sufficient for it all. Your issue is more than likely multiple DHCP servers. For YOUR network, that is probably not needed.

If you like, I will help you further via phone (MUCH MORE EFFICIENT THAN TYPING) Private message me with your number.
