Re: [Home Network] Need help with WGR614 v6 Netger Router and SB If you don't lose synch, but you lose Internet access, it could be a problem between the SS4100 and the router. The methods which work seem to be:
Method A:
SS4100 set to "PPP is on the modem, use private IP address", and "Always attempt to connect".
Router set to "Obtain IP address from ISP", or some variation of that.
Method B:
SS4100 set to "PPP is on the modem, use private IP address", and "Always attempt to connect".
Router is set to a static IP address, and configured with 192.168.1.64 on the WAN port. In most cases, you also have to configure the DSN servers; 68.94.156.1 and 8.94.157.1 should work.
Method C:
SS4100 is set to "PPP is on the computer".
Router is set to "PPPoE", and the account log in parameters are entered in the appropriate fields. User name is the full email address.
This is a bit of esoteric knowledge, and probably won't apply in most cases; but I found that configuring RIP-1 on my Netgear routers is problematic with the first two methods. Only Method C worked with RIP-1 enabled. If you don't know what RIP is all about, just make sure that it is disabled, if it is an option. Normally, it is disabled for a factory default installation. It is only useful for exchanging routing tables between to routers.

1 edit | It is the only IP address in the range of the SS4100 which passes unsolicited packets to the connected device; i.e., it is the modem DMZ IP address. You can use any IP address from 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.255.254, as long as the address you use doesn't conflict with the LAN IP address range. However, P2P, and other types of applications which expect to receive unsolicited packets WILL NOT WORK properly.
You can find the SS4100 DHCP table on this page:
»192.168.0.1/techreadout.htm
These are the lines from my SS4100:
119 LAN DHCP Server Enabled true
120 DHCP Subnet Mask 255.255.0.0
121 DHCP Start IP Address 192.168.1.64
122 DHCP End IP Address 192.168.1.64
123 DHCP Default Gateway 192.168.0.1
124 DHCP Default Lease Time 000 days 00:10:00
125 Domain name
126 DHCP Leases Allocated 1
127 DHCP Leases Available 0
EDIT: Needed to add the reference to the "DMZ", else the statement would be incorrect.
