Re: [RndTbl] How to set up and use static IP from Rogers/Shaw
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. On Tue, Feb 13, 2024 at 10:27 AM Vijay Sankar <vsankar@foretell.ca> wrote:
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

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

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

I presume your Shaw business modem is a Hitron, possibly the Hitron CODA-5810. That one, just like the former Shaw residential Hitron CGNM-2250, also allows selective IP pass-thru on a per port basis. I wish those dumb residential XB6/XB7/XB8 modems would do that.

Sure thing. My Shaw business modem is setup the same way Adam mentioned. It also allows me to use wifi and Ethernet NAT’ed through the 192.x interface and just port 2 bridged through to static IP. As you said that does require two firewalls in my case (could have done it with one of course).
