Re: Download speeds drop 40% with Asus router and Hitron CGN3 modem combo
Have a read through Douggate's posting: http://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/forums/forumtopicpage/board-id/Getting_connected/message-id/17398#M17398 This seems like a perfect solution to the problem....

Running monitoring software as mentioned by datalink, will be a good sign if something might be amiss on that pc. It's totally possible that it's a Rogers issue of not monitoring correctly... But the...

View ArticleLetting a second router through the SMCD3GN
I currently have an SMCD3GN router through Rogers. I am connecting a Cisco 891 to it, using the SMC as the external WAN. For examples sake, let's say the internal IP on my SMC is 192.168.150.1. The...
View ArticleRe: Letting a second router through the SMCD3GN
Can you take a step back and explain exactly what you are trying to do? Are you trying to keep family members away from the 891's network? I guess I'm just confused about why you can't just put the SMC...

Yeah, i would agree.. explain to us, what you are trying to do...Alot of it seems possibly un necessary.. and maybe we can come up with a better solution.
View ArticleRe: Letting a second router through the SMCD3GN
This may be a totally absurd idea (remember, I'm not sure I understand the problem), but if you need two subnets, why not bridge the Rogers modem, then get a fancier router (I don't know how fancy...
View ArticleRe: Letting a second router through the SMCD3GN
If its a matter of having enough ports for all of the devices, you would be better off placing the 891 behind the SMC and then placing an unmanaged 8 port gigbit switch behind the 891. As Gdkitty and...

From my SMC network I can ping anything on the network, including everything on the 891 network (192.168.150.0 and 10.10.10.0 respectively. That is with using the static route on the SMC to tell...
View ArticleRe: Letting a second router through the SMCD3GN
My question would be whether or not the ability to ping inside the SMC network and communicate device to device is important. My home network is very similiar to your diagram, the only difference is...
View ArticleRe: Letting a second router through the SMCD3GN
Okay, I think I see the problem. The SMC, like most such devices I would guess, is only going to do NAT for traffic with a source IP that matches its 'interior' IP range (i.e. 10.10.10.* if I read your...
View ArticleRe: Letting a second router through the SMCD3GN
Datalink, I don't want to use the 891 as a switch, I want to use it as a router. With its own network. That's the whole point of this. The SMC network is one network, the 891 is a second network...

VivienM, I think it can, but you're right, that would be an ugly solution. I can give it a shot and see if it works but I would like to avoid that if at all possible. Hopefully my company will install...
View ArticleRe: Letting a second router through the SMCD3GN
What happens now with the 891 in place. If you can't ping the google DNS for example, are you able to do anything at all beyond the SMC out to the outside world?
View ArticleRe: Letting a second router through the SMCD3GN
No, not able to ping outside the SMC. I can ping to it, and I can ping the other side of it (my public facing IP, which I didn't realize until now) but can't ping anything else on the outside.

So no web browsing, email, or anything else?
