• Apple Remote Desktop Admin cannot communicate with clients
• How can I collect statistical information from Westell modems?
• How can I deal with the Verizon walled garden?

If you are running ARD from behind a Westell 6100 using the built-in router, you may find that all your clients show up only as "Offline" or "VNC On." The solution is to bring up the Westell configuration web page, click on the NAT/Gaming tab, and define a new custom service. I chose to make it a port triggering service to increase security. Set the trigger and global ports to 3283. Save this service, enable it, and you should have full control of your clients again.

Some verizon versions of the Westell modems (6100, 327w, 7500) come with firmware that directs you to a walled garden, from which it is hard to escape.

If you are on Verizon, this might not be a problem. The purpose of the walled garden is to help you configure your modem. However, if you are using a verizon version of the modem with another provider, then the walled garden arrangement prevents you from getting to the modem configuration pages.

To turn off the walled garden, follow the advice in the Verizon FAQ:
