Multiple houses, 1 connection - will it work
Posted: Mon Aug 30, 2010 9:41 pm
Hi,
Now that I have got Gargoyle running exactly as I want it, we will be moving house! The house that I am moving to is 1 of 3 on-site at the business I work for.
There are 2 internet connections - 1 for the business, and 1 for the 3 houses. I have not seen the hardware for the residential connection, but I imagine that it splits from a switch, which gives us our 1 ethernet port in each house.
What I would like to know, is that if I connect the WAN port of my Gargoyle router to this ethernet port, will the other 2 houses still have un-affected internet access?
I would like to do this so as nobody in the other houses can access our LAN (files and printers etc), I can restrict data within our own house, and so all 3 houses still have full internet access.
