    Auto Script to Reconnect WAN Until Certain IP Range is Obtained

    What DonnyJohnny wrote is important ant should not be ignored and must be kept in mind. If you can get desired range within few tries, you should not be banned, but what if you need hudnerd tries? Yo umay be for hours without a connection while trying for a desired range, too. That said: script...

    how to check for "No space left on device"

    I think I may be nar the same memory problem as before. But, I can find no way to get the number of free memory that the router is displaying. After a reboot, my router says (Tools menu): Total 249.71 MB Free 194.28 MB Currently it says: Total 249.71 MB Free 91.29 MB This free...

    Clarify "loopback not working" for me!

    Interestingly, I have seen here many people who claimed they had a problem with Asus Loopback, but not a single one of them had anything to say regarding my above post :)

    Clarify "loopback not working" for me!

    I simplifed my terminology as it was long as it is :) My fix b.2) is not actually loopback since a router is not capable of doing loopback in DoubleNAT network - it simply does not know WAN IP address to loop anything back from it. So, for anybody with DoubleNAT situation (meaning: Asus router...

    Clarify "loopback not working" for me!

    Many of us, including me, claim that loopback does not work for them on Asus routers (e.g. Asus RT-AC68U). And others say it should. Could it be that the DoubleNAT caused problem and we blame Asus router for it? Help me understand and correct me if I am wrong, please! My test case: 1) modem has...

    how to check for "No space left on device"

    Another thing which may be relevant: sometimes it takes a long time for putty to connect to the router. It may take it 30 seconds ormore, maybe even more to connect to the router. Screen is just blank. In the meantime, I can use the same putty and the same computer and network to connect...

    how to check for "No space left on device"

    OK, that sounds like a plan :) I think the problem may be connected with me experimenting something and doing a lot (20+) of GUI changes (e.g. port forward off / on in the last case). Zhat may also explain irregularity of the problem as it pops now and there so I keep forgeting about it and have...

    how to check for "No space left on device"

    My Asus RT-AC68U regularily develops a lack of free memory, often 80+ days. Now it did so in about 40 days likely because I was trying to do something and was experimetning with some settings changes. It stopped accepting my changes (Port Forward). My script (DDNS) would not complete its task as...

    manual firewall rules for loopback

    My router again lost its free memory, and of all apps, dnsmasq was comlaining about ianbility to save data :) After a restart, my above problem naturally returned. Since I did not know how it was fixed previously, now I decided to do a better job. Your advice gave me the solution, but the...

    manual firewall rules for loopback

    Excellent, seems exactly what I wanted. Many thanks. But, funny thing is: while I was testing, switching from Merlin to Asus loopback, no changes were observed. So, I left out working on other things that needed work. Two days later, I tested IMAP server, and suddenly everything worked...

    manual firewall rules for loopback

    I have Asus RT-AC68U. It is double NATted and loopback does not work. Theoretically, this router has no problem with the loopback, so It may be entirely fault of my router being DoubleNAT. Changing NAT Loopback from Merlin to Asus does nothing. But, all of that is irrelevant. Same as firmware...

    why VPN ignores my DROP rule?

    OpenVPN server is configured with Push LAN to clients Yes. Now, I want to forbit id to access anything on the server side. What is wrong with the: iptables -I FORWARD -s 10.37.0.0/24 -j DROP that allows access to my router (192.168.1.1)? I want to do the opposite, but I do not know how: I...

    openVPN: push just one address, not Push LAN to clients

    At my Asus router, OpenVPN server: Push LAN to clients is to allow any client coming to my VPNserver to connect to my entire LAN. I need different thing: how to let this setting to off and just push one single LAN IP address to this VPN? VPN server is tun22 and is set to 10.37.0.0. The only...

    Limiting incoming VPN client to the single local address bidirectionally

    I will, but I expected someone here to know what I expect to be 1 or 2 lines of routing needed. Route server2 to addresX

    Limiting incoming VPN client to the single local address bidirectionally

    But again, if I do open a VPN connection, I still need to limit its reach so it can go nowhere if someone fires up another app and enters my end of VPN. So, I am back to my original quesiton.

    Limiting incoming VPN client to the single local address bidirectionally

    I will have to check Remote Desktop as I never used it. Providing it can work with WinXP. Also, I will have to check TeemViewer Remote printing, but still I do not like how many things one can press in it. As I said - medicinal stuff, not technical people. @ColinTaylor - yes, VirtualWin7 will...
