    DSL modem in non-bridge mode and router in DMZ?

    By the way, I really appreciate everyone's help. With respect to John Connor's comment about putting the DSL modem in bridging mode. Yes, I could do that, however the problem is one where if I do this, I am unable to access the management interface for the DSL modem.

    DSL modem in non-bridge mode and router in DMZ?

    Fardringle's suggestion resolved the problem: DSL Modem - Mode: PPPoE - DSL WAN: <assigned by ATT> - DSL LAN: 192.168.2.1 - DSL Modem forwards all traffic to DMZ Host: 192.168.2.254 Router - Mode: Static IP - WAN IP: 192.168.2.254 - Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1 - LAN IP: 192.168.1.1

    DSL modem in non-bridge mode and router in DMZ?

    We recently experienced a DSL modem failure and decided to replace both the previous DSL modem we've had as well as the router with a D-Link DSL-520B DSL modem and an Asus RT-AC66U wireless router. We have AT&T as the ISP and had no problems with setting up the DSL modem as a layer 2 bridge and...

    i7 Build Review/Motherboard recommendation?

    The problem is that there are almost no reviews of the Biostar board. A few reviews of the AsRock, and a ton of reviews on the UD5.

    i7 Build Review/Motherboard recommendation?

    It is relatively more expensive than the other two boards for a set of similar features... I'm trying to get someone here to justify the additional cost of the GA-EX-58-UD5 :)

    Any particular reason for the GA-EX58-UD5 over the other two motherboards?

    i7 Build Review/Motherboard recommendation?

    A small comment on the motherboards... I find that the GA-EX-58-UD5, although well liked online, is quite a bit more expensive considering that it has features that are almost identical to the ASRock and the Biostar. Additionally, the AsRock X58 Deluxe has the newer Realtek ALC890 sound chipset...

    i7 Build Review/Motherboard recommendation?

    I've also had good experience with Gigabyte and their LGA 775 boards (I have one), but the MSI seems like a solid board as well. Same goes for the AsRock X58. Not many reviews on either one of those, however. Getting the Zalman since it comes with a LGA 1366 adapter clip. The Zalman...

    Computer will be used mostly for gaming and the usual routine web browsing, etc. I doubt there will be a need to overclock this one soon. Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated. ---------- Case - Lian Li PC-A17B Black Aluminum ATX Mid Tower...

    BUSH COMMUTES SENTENCE OF BORDER PATROL AGENTS!

    Look at data on unemployment and illegal immigration (which has risen since NAFTA started) into the US. There is basically no correlation between unemployment and the number of unauthorized arrivals in the US. Unemployment varies over time, but recent changes in immigration don't correlate with...

    BUSH COMMUTES SENTENCE OF BORDER PATROL AGENTS!

    Overall, I would venture to say that a bigger issue here is one of the presidential power to grant pardons. To the framers of the Constitution this power was important because of the way that the law was applied back in the 17th and 18th centuries. In England it was fairly common for minor...

    BUSH COMMUTES SENTENCE OF BORDER PATROL AGENTS!

    Haha, well I would say that illegal immigrants aren't an invading army so the argument that we would be using the National Guard for border defense doesn't exactly work here. Besides, why would you train the military for border patrol missions when you can simply hire and train border patrol...
