I'm new to the forum and would like some assistance if possible. we just had a new epmp1000 installed and we have a linux server configured as a firewall and gateway.
with our previous DSL line, the router had a "passthrough" option which allowed the linux server to do the authentication.
The only entry that was missing on linux server's external interface was the ePMP1000's hostname.... Added that info and viola... All started working. I just had to edit some DNS entries on my linux box and access speed also increased!
I kept the ePMP1000 in NAT Mode, Ethernet Interface on DHCP and the Linux box got the ePMP1000's LAN interface's DHCP range.
Changed DNS entries at the ISP to point to the new static IP of the AP, added some port forwarding rules to the email and webserver (linux box) and all is great!!
Thanks for trying assist in any case, much appreciated.
