Hey guys, I wanna be able to connect to my network and access my servers from anywhere with my laptop and or my girlfriends laptop. So I did some research on this and found I need a router with the capability of doing so. So i bought a Cisco RV320 gigibite dual WAN VPN router. I took my old residential home wifi router out as out this in its place. Set it up correctly "I think" then turned DHCP server off since my DC has the DHCP server on it. And now I can't access ether of my servers and my PC won't even pull an IP address. I tried ipconfig /release and then ipconfig /renew and it won't pull an new IP. Lol and then after I get this figured out I need help setting up the VPN part. 

System info

server 1: dell poweredge 1950 windows server 2012 R2 data center

server 2: dell poweredge 2950 windows server 2012 R2 data center

my desktop : windows 10

laptop: Lenovo windows 10

NETWORK LAYOUT.

from the modem it goes to a switch for things I don't want on my network "like my APEX for my saltwater tank". From that switch goes to the DMZ/WAN port on the new Cisco vpn router, on the LAN ports on the router 1 server 1, 2 server 2, 3 my PC, 4 is empty just has a long Ethernet cable for my laptops and is ment for a wireless access point in the future. 

Thanks in advance ?

Just checking, is the router ip in the same pool as the switch and modem? Would create the same kinda issues with your PC not getting an IP address

yes haha i actualy figured out why i wasnt pulling an IP. it was because i had my server plugged into the WAN port and the internet line plugged into LAN 2 haha. but when i fixed it i now get a DNS server error.
