Switeck Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Does your wireless ISP give out unique, unfirewalled internet ip addresses to each customer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scinner Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Im not sure. They run DHCP but Im not really sure what that means? (noob at networking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Wireless ISPs tend to not give you an actual public IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scinner Posted February 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 And that means I'll have to live with my NAT problem or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Yes, basically, unless you feel like switching ISPs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted February 9, 2007 Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 Check your D-Link AP and see what IP address it has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scinner Posted February 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2007 I wont change my ISP because its a local one thats very cheap. I got 5/5 Mbit and I like that better than all the other ISP's who only got 1Mbit UL. My NAT problem seems small in comparison to that. My D-Links default IP is 192.168.0.50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
