Hi John, The Draytek Vigor 2862L would fit the requirements and the best bang for buck for a single site customer with the features you require. I have used the Draytek routers in the past and have found them to be a good reliable SOHO CPE device with enough SNMP capability to be

Re: [AusNOG] Are domain name server pointers reliant on registrar name server?

Hi Peter, This scenario has happened a lot in the past before having dedicated hosting DNS servers where DNS functions were shared for hosting and recursive lookups. I suspect it still happens in smaller organisations where a client delegates the name servers to new authoritative DNS

Hi All, I have heard that the issues are as wide spread as Tasmania as well, with Government Agencies yet to be given an ETA on the fix, has been said to be affecting VoIP Telephony (Telstra TIPT) as well as data services to varying degrees. There hasn’t been an update in the last hour
