Double Access Point Problem

Post by byndgrv »

Hey guys!

I recently added a second access point to my home. I need to somehow hook the UMS back to my playstation 3.

Here is my current network

Internet/Modem
v
Router # 1 > PC
v
Router #2 > PS3


I want the PC and PS3 to communicate but of course due to the second router is causes problems. Any suggestions/Ideas?

Why router instead of switch?
Only solution is to set one router to bridge mode so only one subnet exists. DLNA/UPnP is limited to one subnet only (by default multicast packets are not forwarded to other subnets)
