WAN to VPN to Router setup
Am having trouble setting up the following config. Broadband WAN connection into FVS318 VPN - 8 port to route to non wireless clients one LAN port of the FVS318 into the WAN port of WGR614 I tried DHCP off and also on but with a limited range on the downstream (WiFi) router. I also tried setting its WAN IP to fixed (192.168.1.11) and to DHCP and the WGR614 just seemed to no longer respond to connection requests. So, rather than troubleshoot my trials, what is best practice for how to configure WGR614 as a downstream Wireless router from another router?
Netgear R7800 ethernet port speed max 100Mbps
Is about a Nighthawk(R) X4S R7800 firmware version V1.0.2.40 Although a gigabith ethernet connection from the modem is connected to the wan port and a gigabit switchport is connected to ethernet LAN port 1, both show a maximum of 100Mb. Also the connected Gigabit switch port shows a maximum of 100Mb. (connecting other gigabit devices on the switcvh port show a 1Gbps speed) According to the specs , the ethernet ports of the R7800 are 1Gbps. What can be the cause that the bandwidth is max 100Mbps ? router status / internetport statistics:LB2120 Bridge mode, not passing dynamic IP to router
Hello, I am using the LB2120-100-UKS which i have just received from new and wanted to use the bridge mode with a TL-R470+ load balancing router. I am connecting ADSL via the TL-R470+ with no issues (PPPoE in UK). The LB2120 is working well in both router and bridge mode with a PC (direct connection, no routers or switches, PC just set to obtain address automatically). In router mode, i get an IP in the range of 192.168.5.x as i would expact. In bridge mode, i get the WAN IP which is shown in the mobile 4G status window from the LB2120, so i know the (W10) PC is picking up the dynamic 4G IP address. If i restart the modem, it may (not always) get a new IP and the PC picks this up no issues. When setting the WAN port i intend to use for 4G on my TL-R470+ to "dynamic" the poor thing just sits forever and tries to connect with no success at all, looks like it never receives an address. If i set the "Static" and i enter what i noted from a succesfull PC connection, then the TL-R470+ makes a sucesfull connection to the LB2120 and i get 4G internet. Whats more, the load balancing works, and i get the benefit of the ADSL (slow but unlimited) and the 4G (fast but limited). So i know the system works as i want however i cannot use a static WAN IP on my 4G connection. My carrier, EE, wont offer fixed IP address on the consumer data tariff i have, so every few hours, or after a reboot, i would need to manually find the new IP, default gateway & DNS and update the details on the TL router so it can connect. I can only imagine that the router is getting confused as it "sees" both the 192.168.5.1 of the router admin page and the WAN IP and it cannot pick which to settle onto. Or perhaps it only sees 192.168.5.1 and its waiting on an IP assignment. How can i get around this? Is it a fault with the TL-470+ router, or the LB2120. Posts on other LTE models suggest this issue has been known for some time with any router. I can get it to work with the LB2120 in router mode, and the TL470+ in dynamic (i would probably pick static outside the DHCP pool to avoid conflict) and it gets an IP in the 192.168.5.x range but then double NAT is probably not always a good idea. This does at least mean the LB2120 takes care of the 4G WAN IP by ittself and i dont need to worry about it. Any help would be apprecaited. Thanks, StuartRBR50 *2 for dual WAN ?
Hi, with 2 Internet acces provider. I use FVS336Gv2 to aggregate the 2 WANs. Then 7500 to share Wifi. It work well, but : - lack of house and garden coverage - 2 devices management (in add of 2 modems) - only 4 wires connexions for main subnet (need one more switch) - need for better Wifi performance So, could I use two connected RBR50 for dual WAN and Tri-Band functionality ? Other thinks, could we add a 4G WAN on RBR50 ? Thanks in advance for your time to answer 😊. Mick
FVS336GV3 adding multiple IP addresses on WAN
Make/Model: Netgear Prosafe FVS336GV3 4.3.3-6 - applies to any version Having wasted time reading multiple posts but successfully adding multiple IP addresses to a single WAN port, I thought I would post the simple solution myself, so that Netgear employees don;t have to stretch themselves too much.... Make sure you create and add SECONDARY ADDRESSES to the WAN (1 or 2) BEFORE you create your inbound NAT rules. Only then will they appear in the drop-down list where you can bind them to internal addresses (see above screen-shot)
