Creating a home network

[chewspam]

This may have been asked before, but I couldn't find it when searching. Maybe I missed it in these tutorials. But my question is where does my cat6 cable go in order to create a network.

I'm going to follow this tutorial to set up my antenna/hotspot/router: http://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=16&hilit=Didneywhorl&sid=743c8cc2cf6402d745e563c8b7d2252f

Then I'm going to follow this tutorial to get the firmware and everything straight: http://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=19&sid=dededaa9f7255219d4e31ae7101cfd8b

But how can I take that cat6 that is powering everything and connect it to my router inside my home to run my home network?

There are numerous ways you can configure your system depending on which device (outside or inside router) will acting as the DHCP server--assigning an IP address to computers, phones, laptop and other devices on the network.

Below is a rather crude diagram of two of many possible configurations.

The top diagram shows the WG3526-P (PoE) in the antenna enclosure that [url=http://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=49&sid=0775f423f787599bbc8acd04ad75978a]DMZ[/url]'s all the traffic to the inside router which assigns the IP addresses to the other network devices. The WE3525-P is acting the role of a dumb router. Also, WiFi on the WE3526-P will need to be disabled.

The bottom diagram shows the WG3526-P acting as the DHCP server.

I am sure others can add different options as well as the cons and pros.

Thank you for your answers. So is the WG3526-P acting as a wired bridge here? Also, how do I get to these configurations for each device? Do I have to plug the Cat6 from each device in to a laptop and configure them one at a time?
