My home network is a little more complicated than most. My ISP is fibre optic, so no modem.

My ISP goes to my "Main" router, it is set up as the "Host" with an IP 192.168.2.1. It is set as the Gateway DHCP Server.

It has a second router connected by ethernet in another part of the house. Simply named Bob, IP 192.168.2.4

A third router in the shop also connected by ethernet named Shop Router, IP 192.168.2.17


So my network has always seemed slower than it should be. But it has worked in this setup for several years. And I have WIFI throught the house and shop. I recently did some testing on my network and ran a network test "Netscan"


I set Netscan to start at IP 192.168.1.1 and run through 192.168.2.200

Netscan shows 16 devices on my network. With the first 3 in the IP range 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.120 and 192.168.1.184 The others are in the 192.168.2.1** range

So my question, is my network working "right" with these three connected in the .1. range? I thought I had my network set up so that everything had to be in the .2.*** range.

Netscan only shows the IP's of these items, no MAC or names for them.


I hope it is OK to have posted my IP's if not please delete.
