I have lab equipment that I want to put on a separate network from my home network. My modem and home router are in a separate room from which I am going to be putting my Cisco equipment. How do I go about this?

Is that 2611 a 2611XM, or just a straight 2611? When I took some training they used 2621XMs and 2950 switches, and apparently they had to pick a very specific IOS image to make the router behave like the current curriculum calls for. I tried some regular 2621 routers and they could not run a new enough IOS to exhibit similar behavior, I ended up shopping for 2800-series which are plentiful and cheap where I live.
For what it's worth after I got a functioning base config on my 2851 I actually made it my home production router. Nothing like being dependent on it to force one to learn how to take care of it.
