| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

Need some help with my Network..
So i use a linksys switch (i thought it was a router) and it used to seem to work, but now that i have att dsl i cant connect more then one computer on it.. Say if i want to get on my xbox live i have to go to my Network Connections and manually disable it.. (I use Windows xp)
So i figured that if i bought an actual router it would fix that but.. nope i got a Netgear Wireless WGR614v9 router for 45 dollars... and it still wont fucking work... is it my actual dsl modem or what? I have no clue what to do.. and all that troubleshoot bullshit from their website hasnt done jackshit... so any help would be appreciated..

Re: Need some help with my Network..
You might have to adjust your settings on the modem. I think you might have PPPoE set on the computer, and you need to set it to the modem. Or the other way around... I'm not sure at the moment because it's been so long since I've had ATT DSL. I've had this problem too, so try that first.

Re: Need some help with my Network..
The router should fix that. It should go like this:
>xbox
*
modem ---->router< ---> computer
*
>other computer

Re: Need some help with my Network..
The above diagram should help you. If your DSL modem is performing NAT than you will need to change the LAN network on your new router to something different ex: (from 192.168.1.1 to something like 192.168.2.1). Then clone the MAC address of a computer on your network and you should be good to go.

Re: Need some help with my Network..
I think the problem lies in your router itself. I had a netgear router and scrapped it because it couldn't handle xbox live for some reason. You could always install another network card in your computer, and bridge the connections. That's what I did.

Re: Need some help with my Network..
Just for the hell of it. Run the ethernet cable from your modem into a one of the switchports rather than the internet port and see what happens.

Re: Need some help with my Network..
Hmmm good idea but it still wont let both connect.. and when i turn my xbox on it says theres an ip conflict
EDIT: but thats with the linksys switch.. not the netgear wireless router.

Re: Need some help with my Network..
by the sounds of it your Modem is not performing NAT which you will need if you want to run more than 1 computer. Try and run the software that came with the router and if that dont work you wil need to do this.
*run a ethenet cable from the switchport on the router to a compuer.
*log into the router (192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1)
*default username admin. Password is password or admin
*Clone the MAC address of your PC thru the router configuration page and save settings.
*Hook up as the diagram shows above
* Power down everthing and reboot in this order Modem - router - PC

Re: Need some help with my Network..
Indeed I was going to say clone MAC addy.
but I ahve to point out that the modem does not perform NAT. the router performs NAT. (OSI model- router lever 3, modem level 1)
also try opening up your routers firewall- put in in DMZ- and then try to get on Xbox live. if this works then you need to forward router ports to your Xbox.
also does the xbox work when plugged striaght into the modem? if not then its your ISP

Re: Need some help with my Network..
you would need to get into the router to adjust those settings, so if power cycling the router doesnt work, and resetting the router doesnt work, then your current router will work well for holding down paper.
