Which ADSL Router for TC?

I've just bought Time Capsule to discover it doesn't include a ADSL router. I don't have one - can anyone recommend a decent one that will be easy to set up with TC?
Thanks
Acculess

You are much better off with an Ethernet ADSL modem for use with a Time Capsule as the TC is a router itself. Something like the X-Modem M3 would mean that you don't have to mess about with port forwarding an suchlike on an ADSL router.

Which ADSL Modem for Airport Express?

OK. This is simple... or so I thought.
Here's the situation: I have just subscribed to Demon's broadband service (in the UK) and I want to create an AirPort Express wireless network in my home. I have a Windows-based laptop and an iMac G5 (with an AirPort card factory-installed) that I wish to share this connection.
I know that the USB modem that Demon supply will be useless and that I need to buy an ADSL Ethernet modem to connect to the AirPort Express base station, but can anyone advise which one I need?
I've read loads on this matter and there seems to be some controversy surrounding which ADSL Ethernet modems work with AX, especially when wishing to connect more than one computer to the conenction. I'd be really grateful if anyone could tell me which ADSL Ethernet modem to buy to fulfil my wish!
Also, any recommendations on which wireless networking adapter card to buy for my non Wi-Fi laptop to work with the above set-up?
AirPort Express Mac OS X (10.4)

My flatmate and I faced exactly the same dilemma two months ago, and while I can't give you a comparison of different brands, I can tell you that we ended up buying a SafeCom modem router, which works perfectly with our airport express, providing internet connectivity to two and sometimes three laptops at the same time.
I will warn you (and you may already have discovered this) that High Street electronics stores will pretend not to know what you are asking for if you say you want an ethernet-out device; they want to sell you non-Apple wireless transmitters.
The modem router we bought was far and away the cheapest alternative on the market (at £25), which doubtless contributed to the reluctance of retailers to dig it out of the dark corners of their topmost shelves for us. The set up was a breeze (as compared with the set up for the USB modem that came with our broadband service) and we haven't had any problems at all. No interruptions of service, no slowdowns, nothing.
(I'm not sure whether my user info indicates this, but I live in the U.K.)

What ports to open on ADSL router for ePrint

My HP ePrint printer is behind an ADSL router with firewall/NAT functionality. The printer has an internal ip address.
Incoming connections from the internet are by default denied unless I open specific ports and protocols on the firewall and do natting to the internal network. What do I need to to open to allow HP to send print jobs to my HP printer at home?

This setup works for me on a port-based firewalled NAT router with all inbound/outbound TCP/UDP ports blocked from 1 to 65535 except those enabled out of necessity like DNS (UDP/TCP port 53). I added TCP port 5223 (XMPP over SSL) outbound only to the NAT firewall. TCP port 443 (HTTPS) outbound was already enabled. No UDP ports. No inbound. No need to do NAT port forwarding. Port 5222 (XMPP) also works for me but it's unencrypted, I believe.
It takes several minutes for the ePrint service to get established but it does eventually work. I think the printer tries to connect to the ePrint service on port 5222 first and when that fails it tries 5223 so it takes a little more time to get connected. But, that's just a guess.
See http://xmpp.org/rfcs/rfc3920.html if you care to know more about XMPP.

Which wireless router for ibook?

Hi everybody!
I would like to know which wireless router (beside apple ones) you can suggest (for less then $100) compatible with ibook.
Thanks!

An iBook with an Airport Extreme card can connect to any wifi certified 802.11b or 802.11g wireless network.

Recommendations - UK ADSL router for AirPort

I've been having fun trying to configure my in-laws D-Link DSL-300G+ router with an AirPort Extreme.
I've resulted giving them my Asus AAM60xxEV so their AirPort network is working.
I've played with the D-Link but gather that it's really not AP compatible. If I'm to replace it can anyone recommend a decent ADSL router that will work with AP.
Thanks,
Jamie.

It is very nice to see all the positive comments made about ADSL Nation and our products. I thought I would just post an update those who are interested in what is happening at the moment.
The X-Modem has proven very popular and is an ideal companion to the Airport Extreme/Express. So people looking to buy one will be pleased to hear that we haven't dropped it completely, we are just revamping our product range. We have a new X-Modem called the X-Modem M3 in the works but due to problems with the manufacturing facility we use the X-Modem CE has sold out and we haven't been able to produce any more. The new X-Modem M3 will be in a silver metal finish so that it looks nicer along side the G5/Mini/Powerbook etc. We were expecting it to be available already but as seems to be a standard feature of the technology industry delays have crept in and I expect that mid October is the likely timescale for the X-Modem M3.
The AMX-64 is also now discontinued and is being replaced by the MRX-400 that is expected at the end of October.
Our latest product just launched on Friday the 23rd is the X-Station. The X-Station is basically a combined ADSL Modem, 4 port Router, and Airport Extreme (54g) compatible wireless. So for people considering what is the best option an X-Station or a combination of Airport Extreme/Express + X-Modem here are a few pointers to help you decide as both options have their benefits.
The chief advantage of the X-Station is that because everything is in one box you just have the one piece of equipment to set-up with just a single power outlet required. The provision of 4 Ethernet ports means that it is easy to connect a range of both wired and wireless computers to the X-station. It also means that combining all the features into a single box makes the combined unit costs about half of what the separates cost.
However the two can not be directly compared as there are some key advantages of the Airport Extreme/Express that no other wireless solution offers. The key differences for the Airport Express are primarily the USB port and the AirTunes features. The USB port allows you to connect a printer to the Airport Express/Extreme so that printing can be done without having the printer shared on another computer the X-Station allows connection of Ethernet and Wireless printers but a USB printer will need either to be shared via a Mac or using an optional USB print server. The AirTunes option as I'm sure most people already know allows iTunes music to be sent over the wireless link to play on a stereo connected to the Airport Express base station and this is exclusive to Apple's Airport Express. The other two key advantages of Airport Extereme/Express are the fact that having a separate modem means that migration to another broadband technology for example cable is easy by simply swapping the modem. Also if the wireless range on the Airport is not enough a second one can be used as a repeater (WDS) not available on the X-Station. The methods for extending the range on an X-station are by using a more powerful antenna or adding a second wireless access point connected via Ethernet to the X-Station.
I hope that the information is useful for those of you looking at your options and please feel free to ask any questions on the forum.

Which Cisco router for NTP service

Hello,
I'm looking for deploying NTP service for multi-customer (in Datacenter).
So, I take a look at Cisco routers list and I saw that some router doesn't have hardware-clock / internal-clock ; for example 2600 series.
I'm looking for a "cheap" but good solution to provide NTP :
- "Cheap" : that's why I take a look at routers, and not directly NTP appliance.
- "Good" : something that can provide time to 300+ end-devices.
Cisco 800 series got hardware-clock, if I read good. But this is the cheapest router, so I don't feel confident.
> What's the "best" router for NTP server ?
> Please, could you share your experiences, opinions ?
Thanks,
Have a nice day.

Cisco 800 series apparently got internal clock, could it do the job correctly?
Rick and I have answered this question already.
Depends on the router, you can instruct the router to regularly update the hardware clock using the command "ntp update-calendar".
If you really insist on a router, an 800 router, then you can get all your device to sync to your router and your router gets sync somewhere in the internet.
Make sure you have the following commands:
ntp server <NTP server>
ntp update-calendar
Note: You can have multiple NTP server IP addresses. And the command above are hyperlinks.
Warning: DO NOT be tempted to use the command "ntp master".

Which is better for Branch Office Cisco ASA or Cisco 1900 router for Branch Office?

Which is a better solution ?
Using ASA55XX or 1900 series router for WAN and Internet access for 25 - 100 users?

Without knowing more about the environment and what the real requirements are, it is difficult to give a really good answer. If your main concern is effective stateful inspection of traffic entering and leaving the site then the ASA is optimized for that. If you want redundancy (active/active or active/standby) then the ASA is better for this. There are other potential requirements which may make the router the better choice:
- what is the connection to the Internet? If it is Ethernet then either ASA or router will do fine. But if it is something other than Ethernet then you may need the router.
- is there a need for services such as Policy Based Routing? These are available on the router and not on the ASA.
- is there a need for load balancing on outbound traffic? This is available on the router and not on the ASA.
- will there be a need to do routing on the inside network? The range of available options is wider on the router than on the ASA.
- is there a need to run a routing protocol with the Internet provider? The usual choice for this is BGP and that is available on router and not on ASA.
So consider these criteria as you make your choice. Or provide more detail about your environment and what your real requirements are and we may be able to give better advice.

Correct route for ADSL connection

Hi
I found a couple of threads on this topic but none of them seemed to be plain enough for a newbie to understand. I use an ADSL connection for my home box.

And remember to set eth0 up in rc.conf as follow:
eth0="eth0 0.0.0.0 up"
I don't know why you have to set route up manually. I thought that the pppd daemon will do it for you.
And... just use /etc/rc.d/pppd not /etc/rc.d/adsl.
Hope this helps.

Urgent - An invoice which has been paid, route for approval again

Hi All,
Below is the what I am stuggling to sort.
Scenario - The invoice 6200382/1 was processed on 6 March 2009. It was approved on 23 March 2009 by Mr. DAVE F VENTURA and Mr. BENOIT M VERHAEGHE. The invoice was paid on 27 March 2009.It appears that the invoice has now again routed for approval, and was rejected on 17 April by Mr. DAVE F VENTURA. The rejection notification (attached) which Norma received, indicates that the invoice was rejected on 15 April 2009. How can an invoice which has been paid, route for approval again, and why is there a difference in the rejected dates as indicated on the approval history and the notification?
This has happened for the second time. I am unable to give a solution to this problem. Need help urgently.
Thanks,
--Sonia

Hi Sonia,
I am facing the similar issue just that the invoice was not rejected.It was paid and re-routed for approval.
Could you please let me know how you resolve this issue.

Recommended settings for TP-Link ADSL Router

Hi Everyone,
After spending 6 months trying to troubleshoot the disconnections with my HH3, i've bitten the bullet and bought aTP-Link TD-W8951ND ADSL2+ router.
I've got the router up and working without any issues, but there are loads of settings that I'm unfamiliar with. Rather than just poke and hope, I'll take any advice on how i conifgure this router to get the most out of my ADSL connection, and get most fro my Wifi coverage.
Thanks in advance!

Ok, the situation has now become a nightmare. Spent all last night suffering from Xbox live disconnects, and time outs. Lots of Xbox codes, that all appear to relate to the response for their servers being too slow. Tried forwarding all advised ports on the router but no improvement whatsoever.
Tried this on 2 xboxes in different parts of the house, both the same issues. Also nticed that XBMC on media PC would not connect to content servers. Internally, the streaming from my server to media PC seems better than ever.
Following morning tried xbox again, and it still times out. Swapped the TP-Link router for my BT Homehub and getting the same issues, and it's still timing out. Eliminated everything else from the set up, so that it goes router to xbox direct, nothing else plugged in. This seems to have resolved the issues. Tried again with a direct connection using the TP-Link but once again it times out.
It does all seem to point towards the TP-Link not working as expected.
Anyone any ideas?

Which bom & routing selection for costing

hi
i have 9 multiple BOM for a finished product and 1 routing.
i want to run CK11 AND CK24 for standard cost estimate.
my problem is that which bom & routing should be considered for std. cost estimate.
for each combination calculated std. price in CK11 is different.
how i should address this issue so that i can calculate std. price

Hi Rajeev,
If you have ( BOMs and 1 Routing that means you have 9 different Production version or not than create it.
Now How system will pick the Production version for Costing.
it Depends on
- Costing Lot size - Costing 1 of Material Master.
Now as per your Costing Lot size system will pick the nearest prod. version.And If there are more than one Production version found which match the costing lot size then it will pick the first one (See the production version sequence in t.code C223).
And depends on that Production version system will pick the BOM and Routing attached to it.
But if you want to run MRP as per your Selection then Select BOM and Routing in Quantity Structuer or Production version in
Costing Data 1 View of Material Master.
It will become default Selection for BOM and Routing for Cost estimate.

Dhaval

Connecting AE to non-apple wireless adsl router (Belkin)

Hi,
I have an Wireless VoIP ADSL router (Belkin) that was provided by my ISP that I use for my home phone and Internet access. It is only a/b/g capable. I currently use it to wirelessly connect to the Internet and other computers on the wireless/wired network from my Macbook Pro. My Macbook Pro has my iTunes and music on it.
I am wondering if I can purchase the AE to plug in by my stereo and connect it wirelessly to the Belkin so that I can stream music to the stereo from the Macbook Pro via the Belkin (eg. Macbook -> Belkin -> AE). I would also like to use the Ethernet port on the AE by the stereo to connect a media center into the wireless network (the media center only has an ethernet port - no wireless built in).
If this won't work will I be able to just run the AE as a 2nd wireless AP and connect to it directly from the Macbook Pro when I want to play tunes through the AE? This would not be ideal as I would in theory only be able to connect to either the AE for music streaming or the Belkin for Internet access.
Can the Macbook connect to the Belkin via 802.11a or g for instance and the AE using 802.11n at the same time?
Thanks,
Graham

I am wondering if I can purchase the AE to plug in by my stereo and connect it wirelessly to the Belkin so that I can stream music to the stereo from the Macbook Pro via the Belkin (eg. Macbook -> Belkin -> AE). I would also like to use the Ethernet port on the AE by the stereo to connect a media center into the wireless network (the media center only has an ethernet port - no wireless built in).
Yes, you should be able to do this with the newer 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn). Because you have a requirement to have the AXn's Ethernet port enabled, you would just need to reconfigure the AXn as a ProxySTA.
To activate ProxySTA, you must set up the Express to join a wireless network and then enable the Allow Ethernet Clients setting; both settings are located in the Wireless tab of AirPort Utility. The feature should work with any wireless network: a, b, g, or n; and 5GHz or 2.4GHz. (Note that the Express, which ships with firmware 7.3, must also be updated to firmware 7.3.1 for this feature to appear.)

Airport express and Negear adsl router

I have a wi-fi netgear dg834g adsl router, which is connected to internet; my imac has not an airport card so it connects to the router with the ethernet port. Now, I have the airport express: what i'd like to do, is to connect my playstation (or pc) to the ethernet port of the airport express, but in another room. The poin is, Airport as to act as Wds and i know my router doesn't support it: but, if I buy another adsl router, or I add another access point to my router which supports wds, will it work? Cause on Apple support it seems you have to youse an airport base station only to do that. That would be crazy!

This is in the faq:
# Question: Can AirPort Express be used for a Wireless Distribution System (WDS)?
Answer: Yes. AirPort Express can be a WDS main, remote, or relay station. It can function as a WDS main whether or not you are using it as a router to share your Internet connection (NAT).
# Question: Can networkable game consoles and digital video recorders join my network via AirPort Express?
Answer: Yes, if you have the proper network adapters for your devices and have set them up properly. They can connect wirelessly when AirPort Express is your only base station or when it's in WDS mode. They can connect via wire when AirPort Express is a WDS remote (the reason for this is described in the next question). They cannot connect either way when AirPort Express is in client mode.
# Question: Since AirPort Express only has one Ethernet port, does it act as a LAN port, WAN port, or both?
Answer: Depending on how you have it set up, the Ethernet port can function as a LAN port (defined as either simple bridging or sharing your Internet connection via network address translation) or a WAN port (connecting to your broadband Internet service provider or upstream router). However, it never acts as both simultaneously in the way that the original AirPort Base Station (Graphite) can. When the AirPort Express is using network address translation, the Ethernet port acts as a WAN port. When it is set up as a WDS remote station, it can act as a LAN port. Assuming that your Internet service provider only gives you one IP address (the most common scenario for homes), this means that AirPort Express can only accommodate wired clients when acting as a WDS remote base station or bridge. Therefore, if you need to support wired clients and only want to get one base station (or router, as it's the routing capacity of AirPort Express that is relevant here), you should get the AirPort Extreme Base Station instead.
so maybe i'm right,but I want to be sure

Help needed - tunnel from behind ADSL router

I have a situation in which I require to set-up IPSec tunnel in between two 1841 routers. This is normally two minutes job, in this case however one of the routers sits on a private LAN behind ADSL router (at the moment there is no reasonable way to get around it).
Thus:
1841-1 <-> WAN <-> ADSL Router <-> 1841-2
1841-1
FE0/1 Private LAN 172.16.1.1
FE0/0 Public IP
|
WAN
|
ADSL Router
Public IP
NAT
Private LAN1 192.168.0.1
|
1841-2
FE0/0 LAN1 IP 192.168.0.1
FE0/1 LAN2 IP 172.16.0.1
172.16.1.0-172.16.0.0 require to communicate over the IPSec tunnel.
Could you please advice me on 1) what is the most practical way to set this up with out loosing sanity; and 2) Could you maybe point me to some documentation that deals with this specific scenario?
Thanks.

'1841-2' does not have public IP (it "fakes" to have one).
IPsec tunnel is fully working now.
In the process though I have learned that it depends on what ADSL modem you are using to get this working.
Check out http://kb.juniper.net/KB4715 for example (this is the one I got working).
You can thus give your Cisco router a private IP behind ADSL router and then follow the steps from the knowledge base article above on ADSL modem (if you have same type available).
In addition then, on your Cisco router - you require to add loopback 0 interface and give it public IP of your ADSL router (yes - your adsl router WAN interface and loopback interface on your Cisco router have now the same public IP).
As the last step, on your Cisco router, change tunnel interface: source interface loopback 0 and destination your remote gateway.
I am going to try different modems, many models can actually do this, but the documentation is often unimpressive.
It is possible that there are better ways to do this, if so, please let me know.
If you wish to have more details about the set-up, let me know.
Thanks.

1841 ADSL Router - Forward GRE/PPTP query

Hi,
 
 I have a customer that has an 1841 ADSL router as a backup to their main 10Mb ISP circuit. The customer has a windows server that they use for some remote access sessions with GRE/pptp. When the primary 10Mb link is in use, this works fine as the ASA on this link has a 1:1 NAT rule and allows port 1723 and protocol 47 through to this windows machine.
 
 When the 10Mb link is down, the customer would like to still be able to RAS into the windows machine but via the IP of the backup ADSL router (which is also connected to the ASA). Looking at various posts, I found that I need to have a static NAT for port 1723 on the inside to the dialer interface, which I have done - but I can't find how I would forward the protocol 47 traffic.
 
 I've attached a copy of the config from the ADSL router if anyone is interested.
 
 The IP of the windows RAS box is 192.168.247.113/24 on the DMZ of the ASA, which is translated as 81.X.X.X on the outside interface of the ASA.
 
 I hope that this makes sense - please let me know if you need any further information, and thanks in advance for any assistance.
 
 
 1) XXX-XXX-ADSL-02-conf-03-02-09_netpro.txt
 

IP Protocol 47 which is GRE tunnel traffic. So there is VPN tunnel going through your device and all data going in that tunnel is translated as GRE traffic. You can only have one PPTP/L2TP connection through the PIX Security Appliance when you use PAT. This is because the necessary GRE connection is established over port 0 and the PIX Security Appliance only maps port 0 to one host.
