We've been encountering internet connectivity problems where if we set our primary DNS on client computers as our router (example: 192.168.12.1) or obtain IP address & DNS automatically we would not...

    Thanks for the input! Definitely food for thought. Very true on the public IPs. I had not thought about that. Guess I mistaken in thinking multiple static IPs would mean less configurations, but it seems to be exactly the opposite.

    Thanks! I have some homework to do. Thanks for the DDNS info. I have heard of it before and don't know why I didn't think of it when I signed up for the static IP. Thanks again!

    Buying Advice - Dual WAN Router

    Thanks so much for the replies. It's a small office and we don't have an IT staff so pretty much turnkey would be best and lots of tech support. It'd be great it I could just set it up by copying all the info from old router to new router and not ever have to worry about it again for the next...

    Buying Advice - Dual WAN Router

    Hello. I 'm trying to find a new dual WAN VPN router for our network. We currently have Linksys RV082 and it worked great for the first few years we had it, but now it will randomly reboot itself. I've contacted tech support and they couldn't offer any help other than update the firmware...
