Re: modem settings for bigpond
Afternoon, Non Standard not really, I would not treat this as gospel?? Bigponds home page provides the settings for DNS and Preferred ADSL Encapsulation Method PPPoE??or A etc... You will run into issues with your primary LAN, with netmask as such 239.255.255.250? DNS Primary is correct and Manual is Secondary(SA). Secondary is ACT, but will still work just a little lag... UPnP disable, unless there is a necessity for it to be activated. Bypasses firewall so you will not know of intruders. If it is a necessity I would find ways of monitoring or controlling what or how will use it? If Possible... Modem default information is provided on manufacturers website. Cheers! `RobD...
