Chaining two Asus Routers both with DHCP
Here is my setup
network topology
Router 1:
192.168.1.1 subnet: 255.255.255.0
Router 2:
IP leased from Router 1: 192.168.1.11. Own IP is 10.0.0.1 subnet: 255.0.0.0
Computer A: plugged into Router 1 with IP 192.168.1.189
Computer B: plugged into Router 2 with IP 10.0.0.79
I have a static route added to Router 1: 10.0.0.0, subnet 255.0.0.0 to gateway 192.168.1.11
I also put 10.0.0.79 in Router 2's DMZ
I can't ping from Computer A to Computer B, nor SMB to it.
Any ideas?
Router 2 is always configured to connect via OpenVPN as external Computer B traffic should always go through OpenVPN.

Bridge them, set the default gateways to the nics you want to use each wan connection. Don't Cascade or you will be double nated

You need to setup a route back from router 2 to router 1. The ping packets can most likely get to computer B, but computer B’s response can’t return to computer A.

Can you just not ping it or are you not connecting to it. Have you tried using \IPADDRESSDriveName where the ip is what you have set in the location of you SMB?
