2012-02-22 Thread Wayne Lee
Part of my motivation for doing this is to learn about IPv6 on the internet and on the LAN (including wifi) so that I can set it up for clients eventually.  So using a fairly standard commercially available router would be preferable. Entanet support PPPoE connections. That's good to

Routerboards. Linitx.com sell them. Any alixboard running m0n0wall will do it too. Routerboard 750 under 40 quid. Monowall works well with the HE tunnels too. Wayne -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL:

Morning The internet router is in port 1, the laptop is in port 5. I have now set the router port as a trunk on the switch. Port 5 is on a different subnet to port 1, the laptop is 10.1.202.0 and the router 10.1.201.0 I set the static addresses of the laptop as follows: ip: 10.1.202.10

That is excellent Wayne, thank you very much. Your welcome I will test this configuration later on today. The DLINK router is very dumb and doesn't support VLANs or anything fancy like that. However, this is a mock set-up I have running in my office; I know the router in the actual

It would also be ideal If i could get routing working on the switch, since I will, eventually, use this switch to route between a number of VLANs in this building, and so, although the temporal effect is probably negligible, it seems it would be a better candidate to route between VLANs in

Hello Large snip I tried that to no avail... I will have a play with it again at work tomorrow and see how it goes. I'll let you know how successful I am. Cheers for all your help guys :) Steven The normal way to achieve this is to make one of the ports a trunk port and connect this to

Hello If you're really having trouble there is a trick you can use. If you share the house (for example with your spouse) if you change the BT account into another name it automatically causes a cease order to go through on the ADSL which the ISP can't stop. The ISP have no contract with the

Just need the Broadband ADSL router to support IPv6 over PPP and include IPv6 firewall/port forwarding features. There are very few ADSL routers which support v6 of ppp. The Manufactures have been very slow in dealing with this(lack of demand being the reason they cite). Of course you can use a

Re: [Hampshire] Anyone know much about IPv6 tunnels?

Your ADSL router will need to do both PPP (IPv4) and PPP(IPv6), and so the ADSL router will have both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. I was talking about v6 only hosts, those without dual stack (new ISP's that startup after v4 has run out for a example). Once v4 has all been allocated the v4 addresses

If this is simply backup data - and particularly if you store it in an encrypted filesystem - then the backup process may not qualify as a transfer under the Act. But this is the sort of thing you need to check. How much data are you talking about? It might be a lot easier to host in
