Mirage just listen
Mirage if you have a router and you plan on using more than one computer. put the modem bridged ethernet and the router to PPPOE
Mirage then put the connection details like your user and password on the router
Mirage if you set the modem to bridged ethernet make sure you turn off the DHCP server FIRST
Mirage then put it over in bridged ethernet
GENinja i only have one comp that needs to use and then my psp
* zboon/#noobzOT said: GENinja, if your going to use a Linksys router then tell your SBC DSL modem to send PPP to the PC, if your not going to use the Linksys router then have the DSL model keep the PPP
Mirage ok so you need a router because you cant hardwire the PSP
Mirage so you use the router option like i explained above
Mirage the other way of setting it up is this
Mirage leave the modem PPPOE like it is already doing
Mirage then set the router up statically to an available address by the modem
Mirage for example
* zboon/#noobzOT said: GENinja, are you really a network administrator? :P
Mirage if your modem has the IP 192.168.1.254 and is giving out IPs from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253
Mirage you could set the router on any address in that range
Mirage lets say you picked
Mirage 192.168.1.200 for the routers static IP
Mirage you could then go into the modem and enable DMZ for 192.168.1.200
Mirage and if you did the set static/DMZ option with the router
* zboon/#noobzOT said: GENinja, heres basically what you have to do...
Mirage your Gateway address would be the modem IP
Mirage DNS Primary would be the modem IP
Mirage subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
Mirage I would do secondary DNS from cisco's servers at 4.2.2.2
Mirage if any of this doesnt make sense, reread it until it does
Mirage and if its still over your head
Mirage print it out
Mirage and find someone to help you out with it
