Re: Need help...constantly getting dropped
Yes, PPPOA is the way you should do the modem. VPI/VCI 0/32 . User name and password. Being you are also using an external router, linksys, I would give the linksys a static IP address from the Zoom. Then turn on the DMZ in the Zoom and point it to the static Ip you gave the linksys. The configuration is going to be similar to the actiontec. If you can, look at the actiontec and you can see what you need. Later... Mike.... |

Meridian, ID | Thanks Mike, I will do exactly that. I already have a static IP on the Linksys and have DHCP turned off on the Zoom but using a DMZ should fix the issue along with the PPPoA config.
Thanks a ton man!!!

| Well, I tried switching to PPPoA but it hasn't changed anything in terms of dropping connection.
I have read some other boards where people are having similar problems. Basically any download over 1MB and it just stops between 50%-70%
I tried to configure the Zoom as both DMZ and Bridging but for the life of me I can't figure out how to do either on that thing. I have done it on Netgear equipment, I have done it on Linksys stuff and I have done it on Cisco stuff but this one baffles me.
And no, the Zoom manuals and/or website are NO help. Everything refers to clicking on a non-existant "Virtual Server" button that I simply cannot find. ANY assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Cheyenne, WY | Have you tried just the modem and a computer? Take the linksys and all other parts out of the equation. Let us know if it's still dropping you. Later... Mike.... |
