alexander Posted May 17, 2006 Report Posted May 17, 2006 oooh, hehe, i think you can indeed haxor your router, i think that if you really wanted to, you could hard reset the thing, but its no guarantee that you can get stuff to work again... Quote

GAHD Posted May 17, 2006 Report Posted May 17, 2006 Yeah, go to future shop, or best buy, or whatever, and spend the $50-$100 on a new one that isn't blocked first. just plug it in the same way and you're set. Quote
alexander Posted May 18, 2006 Report Posted May 18, 2006 gahd, the no config very much depends on your ISP :shrug: if they do DHCP with no authentication, that is one thing, if they do PPOE that is completely different... oh, you can buy a router and plug it into your other router and configure the one you have purchaised. P.S. for routers i highly do not recommend linksys, they are at the low end of the router spectrum, the cheapoized user space'd cisco equipment that cant even setup a class b subnet... go dlink or netgear in the 40-60 dollar range, get a wireless one if you get a chance with a 4 or 8 port switch in the back, you can always turn wireless off, and if you get a new laptop, you'd be more then happy to have it :) Quote
GAHD Posted May 21, 2006 Report Posted May 21, 2006 oh, you can buy a router and plug it into your other router and configure the one you have purchaised.wouldn't this be counter-productive? the other router is still there and doing whatever it was they needed to stop/reconfigure before. The only differenceis you now have an extra layer of N.A.T. bull to deal with. Maby best to call the ISP and ask WTF is up with this crazy little router they gave you. That way you can ask about what's up with it, and how to set it up or set up a new (and better) one you buy yourself. Quote
alexander Posted May 22, 2006 Report Posted May 22, 2006 lol, gahd, 99.9% of home routers don't do NAT; NAT stands for Network Address Translation, you have 3 lines in and 5 users to use them, NAT will translate between 5 users and distribute them across 3 lines coming in. What you mean is actually called PAT or Port Address Transation, that is where you have 1 line in and 5 users, and every request that goes out goes on a different port, and that is what most home users actually use, as most have one line going into their home :cup: Quote
