Here's one for ya...
I'm testing a new cable modem for the local cable company (which I work for) and it has built-in NAT - which there is no way around. I have setup a 6.0b3 box to run behind it. The problem is, seeing as how it (the modem/router/wireless AP) runs NAT all of the time, and is giving a DHCP address to the WAN interface on the SME box, how can I trick SME into still figuring out the real routable IP of the cable modem and updating this information (as it changes) with dyndns.org?
Any suggestions appreciated...
Thanks, Matt
I don't use an SME box but I have done it with Redhat using clients from:
https://www.dyndns.org/services/dyndns/clients.html
and this little trick from:
http://checkip.dyndns.org/
Which has worked well for me behind a D-link DSL-500 router using NAT.
