OH Great, just as I am about ready to set up for a client a SOHO3-10 on a Ameritech.net / SBC ADSL line using PPPoE do I see this post. (It is a remote office connecting to corp office and Sonicwall PRO via VPN.)
I have already changed their service to static IP, (I did that because of SMTP mail problems,) so hopefully I will be ok, right? Also, the "Wonderful" tier 2 support personal at Ameritech/SBC said I have to use the existing Efficient Networks router between the ADSL modem and the SOHO3. That makes no sense what so ever, correct? They said I simply have to disable NAT on the EN router. Sounds stupid too me. Any thoughts? John Tolmachoff IT Manager, Network Engineer RelianceSoft, Inc.

Works much smoother. I don't know what they were doing (and they were no help), but our SW (I also tested it with a LinkSys mini-firewall with the same result) kept loosing the WAN IP and had to refetch. Down times were in the minutes x 20 per day. Too much downtime. It became cheaper to get the static IP than to spend more time solving what I think was an SBC problem, which they would never admit. FYI: Since then we moved that office from SBC DSL to a Covad DSL line. Never a hiccup since then. :-) Todd -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Nick Goodman Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 1:53 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [SonicWALL]- Sonicwall Pro 300 VPN to Efficient Networks Busi ness DSL router Oh, another thing. Anyone successfully used A Sonicwall Tele3 with SBC DSL using PPPoE as well? I may just get another sonicwall so that eventually my entire network is comprised of them.... -----Original Message----- From: Nick Goodman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 1:47 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [SonicWALL]- Sonicwall Pro 300 VPN to Efficient Networks Business DSL router Anyone ever done a link between these 2 devices? Says it supports IKE and VPN. I'm installing a new DSL between a remote office and my corporate and was going to use another sonicwall Tele3 but swb has a good promotion to get one of these routers for alot less money. http://www.efficient.com/products/routbus.html is the link to the unit. --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] ======================================================================== ==== ======================= To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] ======================================================================== ==== ======================= To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus] --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus] --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] ======================================================================== =========================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/ --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude/F-Prot Virus] =================================================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the body of the email put the following: unsubscribe sonicwall your_name The archive of this list is at http://www.mail-archive.com/sonicwall%40peake.com/
