Re: local host vs local address,

2004-09-12 Thread Steven D. Clark
I have a similar setup and use a static IP for my VNC server. Your DHCP server most likely has a range of IP addresses used for its clients (ie 192.168.0.100 - 150). If you set the IP address on your VNC server to something outside the range of your DHCP server but still on the same subnet (ie 192.

You can "convert" the WIFI Linksys router into a WAP/switch by simply not using the router features: 1) Disable the DHCP server so it won't compete with the Ericsson 2) Set the LAN IP (on the Linksys) to something on the Ericsson's subnet (10.0.0.nn) but out of range of its DHCP server 3) Use one

I have no experience with the Ericsson. I have set up PPPoE DSL in bridge mode with the help of the ISP, but it required that I upgrade my service to a subnet from the ISP. I have done this with Cisco 675 and ActionTec modems, but not Ericsson. My modems then had their own IPs and "passed" the oth

Many routers include PPPoE authentication functionality (Netgear and Lynksys come to mind). Some can even emulate your primary machine's MAC address in the event that your ISP expects to connect to a specific machine. Your ISP would not be able to tell the difference between one of these routers a

Start by making sure the XP firewall is turned off for the LAN adapter. (right-click the LAN connection in "network connections", select properties and select the advanced tab) Make sure you can ping the modem computer (192.168.0.1) You should also try from the CMD window "telnet 192.168.0.1" (this

It is important to configure the DynDNS client so that it monitors the change in the router's WAN IP. The client I use (DynDNS Updater) has a radio control on the connections tab that should be set to "local area network" if the machine hosting the DynDNS client is behind a router. Local IP add

2006-02-09 Thread Steven D. Clark
one more note: VNC CAN connect even if the router doesn't reply to a ping. All that is necessary is that the DynDNS name gets translated to your router's external IP address and the router forwards the connection request to the PC running VNC server. Example: .homeip.net is updated by my DynD

Your VoIP box also acts as a garden variety router. It has the WAN IP (axternal IP assigned by your ISP) and multiple LAN IPs assigned statically by you or through the DHCP server on the router. Your router also has simple firewall functions so I would not use DMZ unless you have a compelling reaso

Yes, they can, using the IP listed on the test page. That is your external (WAN) IP address assigned to your router by your ISP. - Original Message - From: "James C. Barr" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Arthur Simpatico" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sent: Monday, June 19, 2006

Another alternative, which I use, is to assign your local IP addresses yourself and use port forwarding. Step 1. Assign static IP addresses that are outside the range your DHCP server uses, but are on the same subnet. Example for a 192.168.1.0 subnet: If your DHCP server has a pool of 50 addresse
