Has anyone set up a 2700 with multiple ip addresses?
I am trying with singtel firmware but everytime i try and set the netmask it defaults back to 255.255.255.255
I think i have the rest of the router "sussed" out and am going to assign 1 ip to a firewall and the other to a different firewall.
Settings idnet state:-
IP Address 91.XXX.XX.224 - 91.XXX.XX.227
as i say as soon as i try and put in a netmask other than 255.255.255.255 the router refuses to save it. if i use dhcp it again picks up 255.255.255.255
Settings in the router
Connection Type: PPPoA
User Name: XXXXX@idnet.gw5
IP Address Range: 91.XXX.XX.225
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.255
Gateway: 212.69.63.55
Primary DNS: 208.67.222.222
Secondary DNS: 212.69.36.3
anyone any ideas? i am sure this worked prior to me moving my adsl to a different phone line.
Sorry, I haven't a clue, Dean. :(

Why isn't the Router set up to obtain them automatically ?
255.255.255.255 is the correct subnet mask for a fixed IP
Sorry, I'm not sure either, Dean!

yes but i "should" have 2 avalible fixed ip's 91.XXX.XX.225 and 91.XXX.XX.226 so 255.255.255.252 should be the correct range.
This is the 2wire documentation (http://support.2wire.com/index.php?page=view&article=126&text=multiple%20IP%20adresses&cat=&sort=) for setting up multiple broadband IP addresses, make sure you use the correct firmware options.
Let us know if you succeed :thumb:
Thanks for the link.
Hmm had a quick go think i may need to reconfigure from scratch.
This is not a problem as i have a couple of spare 2700's and will use one of those.
will have a "play" tommorrow.
It does not seem to work with singtel firmware or i may ahve the keycode wrong thats why its locking it down :(
5225-2374-WG62-22AS-BJ7P is the keycode i am using which is a fully manual one.
am also going to give support an email as i had this working prior to adsl line move, trouble is i tinker with routers a lot (collection of 12 now and another 2 on order)
will try with the sbc firmware tommorrow........will keep you all posted
Good luck!
