    Who knows from an experience (better)/knowledge how to configure IP addresses,Mask,Routs,Gateways and so on... in my special case?

    Please do not suggest I need to buy something or use a features like it simple, just I have a problem to get Internet on my second side in home network I will appreciate your efforts!

    Before I made ONE software change - all works perfectly!
    I canceled PPPoE feature in First DSL modem/router and created PPPoE connection in the system (same login / password).
    In First DSL modem/router DSL line worked and up!
    Just no more Internet feature - down.
    The Problem I can get Internet from laptop connected wirelessy to Wi-Fi router (Second router)

    So, My home network looks like Telephone Line -> DSL modem/router(One port) -> (up link port) HUB (5 ports, one connected with uplink port, so left only 3 free port downlink ports)
    HUB-> direct link to PC (LAN port)
    HUB-> empty
    HUB-> Wi-Fi Router (Second router)
    HUB-> non-used
    HUB->up link (from First DSL modem/router)

    Shortly, DSL goes to First DSL modem/router - comes out DSL only (no internet) connected to HUB
    HUB connected to First Router with DSL, no internet;Second WiFi Router and PC where I created internet connection (so I assume it is a Gateway).

    How to get internet in laptop getting wireless connection to my LAN?
    DHCP does not help at all, if any.

    Setups:

    First DSL modem/router :
    192.168.1.254/24; No DHCP; Gateway 192.168.1.64.

    PC:
    192.168.1.64/24;No DHCP;Gateway itself(first one) 192.168.1.64

    Second WiFi router:
    192.168.1.54/24 (Inside features :
    Dynamic Wan because static WAN requirres second subnet - I did it the same result - no Internet)

    Laptop:
    192.168.1.63/24;No DHCP;Gateway first (main) 192.168.1.64 (PC ip address)

    From PC I ping first,second routers and laptop;
    From laptop I ping first,second routers and PC;
    From Second (WiFi) router I ping first router,PC and laptop.

    On PC IS Internet
    On laptop NO Internet.

    What I have to change in configuration ? (I mean IP settings)
    I tried connect to WAN port of second(WiFi) router and LAN ports - both gave me - NO Internet.

    But IF I run again PPPoE on first router and change Gateway to 192.168.1.254 Internet is in the PC and the laptop.

    Any Help?

    What is the hardware you are using? And why so many routers/hubs with so few connections?

    Why don't you try easier approach by just using you DSL modem and wireless router. You can take hub out of the equation. First, you have to set you DSL modem to bridge mode, which you may have to call you ISP tech. Second, you use you wireless router for your PPPoE. Wireless router will act as DHCP, DNS forwarder, and router for your whole network.

    More Important cause is I MUST to USE SOFTWARE BASED PPPOE Internet connection - DO NOT USE NEITHER DSL modem/router NOR WiFi router PPPoE features.

    Because physical configuration of devices (see above hardware description)

    Your proposition is good but I am going to get another PC and to connect its to fourth port of the switch.
    So I need tree devices are connected amongst itself and two PC are connected to switch; and laptop is connected to wireless router as well as several PDA.
