PHP - Using Any Router From A Subdirectory

Routing issue: Cannot see a wireless router from a wired router on the same network.

I have a very simple home network with a broadband connection from my ISP coming into the house with their 4-port modem/router (192.168.1.1) on it.
From there I have 2 ethernet connections, one each to a wired router(192.168.1.7) and a wireless router(192.168.1.2)
The wired router has one connection to my Debian Squeeze PC (usually 192.168.1.24)
the wireless router has 2 or 3 connections to a PC and a tablet (usually something like 192.168.1.100 & 101... etc)

The internet from my PC (192.168.1.24) is working fine through the wiired router, and the PC & tablet on the wireless router are working fine too.

My problem is that I want to be able to 'see' the wireless router from my PC and I cannot connect to it or 'see' any of the connected devices.
Maybe I am misunderstanding how this networking thing should work, but I think it should be possible to do this.
Can anyone help me please?
 

a) I have turned off iptables
# iptables -F
# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain FORWARD (policy DROP)
target prot opt source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain logdrop (0 references)
target prot opt source destination

b) ifconfig -a

b) I have added routes(I think) to the other router from my PC

from the other end, the wireless router when I connect a wired connection to a laptop I get the following similar picture

Hey.

I'm just wondering what would be the most logical or most efficient way to save an image resource that has been constructed on say the www. to a subdirectory or on another webserver?

For eg

The script on www.example.com constructs an image using the GD library from image1.png and image2.png.
It has now got the final image resource for what's been constructed.

I now want to save this image onto images.example.com

How would you suggest?

How to include root files from subdirectory in php?

I have tried include '../configure.php'; but got error.

Also tried include($DOCUMENT_ROOT."../configure.php"); but same result.

For example, I have "root/admin" directory, and can't connect (from "/admin" dir)  to the file configure.php which is in root. There are also other files to include.

hey guys im after a bit of advise on routing within my framework please.   now i've created a route:     account/verify/email-address/:email_address/activation-key/:activation_key   which will be then interpurated into     account/verify/email-address/destramic-at-hotmail-dot-com/activation-key/12345   now my question is having a email address in a url is good idea?   if so i can decode the :email_addres parameter in the route like so:

$router->add_route('account/verify/email-address/:email_address/activation-key/:activation_key', 
array('controller' => 'users', 
         'action'     => 'activate_account',
         'decode'   => 'email_addres' => 'string_to_email')
));

would like your thoughts on this please guys (go easy)...if not a user_id would be sufficient i suppose   thanks    

I have the code below working perfectly, but I was wondering if there is a more eloquent way to write this, specifically handling the exceptions...

This creates an object of a Router Class that parses my clean URLs into a Controller name, method name and the rest are arguments.

So for example: www.domain.com/users/view/profile/bobsmith would route to the Users Controller, and find the viewUsers
method and pass the arguments "profile" and "bobsmith" to it, and the method would take it from there... works great.

That explains what this code does. My only question is if there is a cleaner way to handle the exceptions, so I don't have
"throw new exception" written four times. Thoughts? Or is it good to go?
