Hey,

Is it possible for Wireless PCs to talk to wired PCs on the same router, if they have different subnets?

Do I have to setup a VPN within the router?

**Okay, have you tried rebooting the machine?**
 
This depends on what model you have. I'm assuming it's a TZW or TZ-170 Wireless? If so, so can enable firewall rules to allow traffic between the lan/WLAN. If you are concerned with security, you can specify that all wireless clients use WiFiSec and VPN to connect. This nis the best option.
 
You also need to enable interface trusting on both interfaces if using guest access. Unfortunately for me, I have never been able to get this to work. I have added rules for any - any on wlan - > lan, and lan - > wlan, selected my wlan to trust my lan segment, and still cannot communicate between my wlan and lan.

I have a level3 case open so when I get the answer on this I will post here.

Jason
