Hi guys, I am tryign to setup 2 networks for my company. I need 1 network for the first room and another network on the second room. Each room can't access another room's computer. I have setup 2 workgroups for each room but it seems that the workgroup can't setup passwords. Every computer is in the same subnet with static ip. They all connect to a switch -> router -> modem.

Router: Linksys WRT54G
Switch: Intellinet

Any thoughts? Thanks a lot. :p

Two ways would be to use dd-wrt firmware and set up two VLANs as discussed here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/VLAN_Support

Or even easier would be to buy another router and setup a second subnet as described here: http://www.ezlan.net/shield.html
