Probably really messed this up, but it seems like there should be a way to make this work.
I wish to note right now that I am having to fix this remotely so a complete reset is not an option.
I have a main MK router (MK1), which is the router to the Internet and firewall. It hosts DHCP for internal 192.168.1.0/24. It's IP is 192.168.1.1
Another MK router (MK2) has a client IP of 192.168.1.154. But it too hosts DHCP for 192.168.88.0/24. It is connected to ETH10 on MK1.
Of course all client on the 88.0 network can access the 1.0 network no problem. But not visa versa.
It seems to me there should be a way to route traffic from the 1.0 network over to the 88.0 network. But so far I have not figured it out.
There is effectively pretty much no firewall on MK2 since it's not necessary. However, just to be certain that that wasn't an issue, I added a firewall rule to allow all traffic from 1.0 to 88.0, just as I have on MK1.
I've seen set ups on the web where there is a completely different subnet between the 2 MK's. But I don't think that'll be an option considering that I'm having to remote in.
Any advice that solves the issue would be greatly appreciated.
