Okay I will play around with it and see what I come up with and will mail you at the support E-mail address.

Probably change the IP address to either public IP address or perform NAT on the router to the private IP address already assigned. Ensure it has the gateway pointing to your router and the primary port is set to wireless (this is default and should be correct most of the time). Also you also need to open SNMP UDP port 161 & 162 on the router/firewall as well.

Not sure how I would configure it so you can log into my network via the public side and be able to see my private IP range of my SB equipment. Colin or Bill how do you suggest we set this up for them? ----- Original Message ----- From: "sB Tech Support" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2003 11:06 AM Subject: RE: [smartBridges] 1.08 Lockups & static IP's Colin, Martin & Bill, You guys are great and we are very happy and grateful on your offer to help in tracking down this issue. Please provide us your network diagram in brief with the IP address. The IP address to the airBridge and the inter-connected device be it Router or PC has the Real public IP or NATed so that we can ping to both devices at any times. Provide us the password (user is good enough). Also provide your contact no. as well so that we can call and discuss if needed.
