DG 834 with BT Broadband
Posted by John on February 21st, 2006


Hi

I have a DG834 which I need to configure for BT broadband with fixed ip for
remote access. Normally ISPs provide a single ip which goes into the router,
simple. However, from BT I have received a set of 5 ips + one router ip. How
do I configure DG834 with these ips?

Thanks

Regards

Ring BT and tell them that you've been sold the wrong product (unless
you actually *want* that arrangement of IPs). They can switch you over
to a single IP product -- it bemuses me why they don't just
automatically assume you want one IP, but I guess it's a way for them to
charge you extra for a multi-IP product.

I know they can do this because one of my clients had exactly the same
problem about 3 months ago.

Good luck!

It's always amused me how BT Business Broadband hand out IP addresses like
sweets, and for every other ISP it's like trying to get blood out of a stone
to get more than one IP address.
