Help with NAT

[robc50]

I have DSL via Qwest using a Cisco 678 modem. I also have a Microsoft wireless base station (MN 500). My problem is that on one of my computers I am running a web server. Basically, with the Cisco, I add a NAT entry to map my internal ip of my web server to my global IP, however, when I added my Microsoft base station to the mix I lost that and am not sure how to set it up now.

All my wired and wireless computers are fine on the network. My IP for the Cisco is 10.0.0.1, and my IP for my server is 192.168.2.3. The base station has a WAN IP of 10.0.0.3 and a LAN IP of 192.168.2.1. Also the base station has port forwarding, which I have turned on and have mapped anything on port 80 to hit my server, but I suspect I need to map my Cisco to my router somehow. Does anyone have any experience in doing this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

I don't have any experience with this setup, but it seems like the only way this could work with your present configuration would be to setup forwarding of port 80 on your Cisco to the WAN address (10.0.0.3) of the MN 500, which would then forward port 80 to 192.168.2.3.

If that doesn't work, you could add a switch or hub between the Cisco and the Microsoft base station, and move your Web server to the 10.0.0.0 network instead of the 192.168.2.0 network -- that's basically what you were doing before you got the MN 500, right? If you don't want to put the current Web server box on the other side of the MN 500, you could probably put together a 486-based dedicated Web server for not much money.

Thanks for the response, I was starting to play around with a set up similar to that when a very simple solution came to mind. I just set my wireless base station to operate in a bridge mode, and am letting my Cisco 678 handle all nat and DCHP. Works like a charm, and hopefully this will help others with a similar problem.
