Hi,
Comcast is in the process of taking over my broadband service from
Insight Communications.
Since switching to a Comcast address range, I have been having frequent
problems with my Internet connection. In the log (the SW error should be
irrelavent--they are trying to put motorala firmware in my Linksys
modem) below is a typical sequence that repeats over and over while
connected via m0n0wall...then, at 15:32, I connected a sacrificial XP
machine directly to the cable modem at which point the modem properly
synched up immediately. On the XP machine, the network interface had the
following values:
IP 68.x.y.z
subnet 255.255.252.0
Gateway 68.x.a.b (within same subnet as IP)
DHCP 172.30.58.34
DNS 68.57.q.r
68.57.q.r+1
I am guessing that the IP address of the DHCP server is giving me
trouble. Any ideas? What else do I need to provide to complete this
picture? (There is no route to 172.x.x.x in m0n0wall routing table.)
Same issues using a Linksys BEFCMU10 modem and a Motorala SB5100 modem.
One more question: Is there a way to force m0n0wall to release and renew
DHCP on the WAN interface?
Thank you for any help.
