Hope this helps...

There is not a way to do this. To make it brief your router sees a ping request coming in from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.x on your remote network. Because the router sees this as a local address it does not let the traffic leave and instead looks for a local device at that address. That is why you need a diffrent ip scheme at each location to ensure that the router knows to let the traffic transmit beyond itself.
