I looked at several solutions for this question, but none of them worked. Additionally, I tried some of the tutorials provided (with the necessary changes), but none of them worked My aim is to use a RPi 3B+ as a router with an existing wireless router connected as an access point. The following figure explains this: [![enter image description here][1]][1] 'eth0' is the Rpi's Ethernet port. The IP for eth0 is assigned automatically by a DHCP server that is beyond my control. 'eth1' is an 'USB to Ethernet' adapter. The wireless network is separated from the network the switch is in by a NAT service that should run on the RPi. I am following [this tutorial][2] as a **guide**. I have already configured the router as an AP. My Problem: When I configure the network (i.e. edit the /etc/network/interfaces file) and restart the networking services (`sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart`), I get the following error: Restarting networking (via systemctl): networking.serviceJob for networking.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See 'systemctl status networking.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details. I also get a similar error when I try to start the DHCP server after configuration. Starting isc-dhcp-server (via systemctl): isc-dhcp-server.serviceJob for isc-dhcp-server.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See 'systemctl status isc-dhcp-server.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details. In addition, when I install isc-dhcp-server using `sudo apt-get install isc-dhcp-server`, it gives an error saying `failed to start` although it installs properly. Can someone show me what I'm doing wrong? **EDIT**: I have made a change to the setup. Instead of getting a direct connection from the ISP, I get it through a switch (hence no modem). What happens beyond the switch is none of my concern) [1]: https://i.sstatic.net/oTGFm.jpg [2]: http://qcktech.blogspot.com/2012/08/raspberry-pi-as-router.html
