Thank you, Vijay! I'll try to get it working without any additional hardware first, and failing that I'll let you know what I need.

Hi Kevin,

Most of the systems I can give away are older than 5 years. They do have intel Xeon or i7, hot swappable drives, 2 to 6 gbics, 8 to 32 GB etc.. Also I have a 12 port microtik router that may be useful in your situation (I used that to bond a bunch of services from Shaw a few years ago)

Please let me know if any of this is of interest.

Thanks,

Vijay

I considered bridge mode, but I'm trying to do this without obtaining additional hardware (i.e. a firewall box of some kind). Unless some kind soul out there has a suitable spare box to donate to a non-profit?

With my Shaw account, I got them to put the modem into Bridge mode, then I treated the Ethernet 1 port as though it was a port on their router, i.e. I set my firewall’s IP to the assigned static IP.

If you want to do it with the Shaw modem acting as a router, I have no idea, sorry.

Subject: [RndTbl] How to set up and use static IP from Rogers/Shaw

 

I'm helping out someone with a Shaw Business account, and they have a static IP they'd like to set up and use for one specific server.

 

So generally, how do you set this up? Shaw forwards traffic with that static IP (and the dynamic one, too) to the router, and then... Enable the DMZ feature of the router and set the IP address of the server to the static one from Shaw and it just works? Or is there some other work to do?

 

Thanks for any help,

Kevin
