| DSL Transfer Ok,
Tonight I was going about hooking up all my equipment at my new house and just to be ready I plugged in my 5861 DSL router thinking it would not do anything tonight. My official turn-on is the 7th. However to my surprise the modem sync'd and the locked speed was 6028/517 or something very close. I thought "Wow, maybe I'm already good to go"!!
No dice though... the link is there and I see routing protocol packets showing up at my firewall from somewhere, but no TCP traffic yet. My old IPs (static) are not working. My question is; is that kinda normal? I mean am I now just waiting for someone to build my old addresses at the new port? I sure hope they don't just assign new addresses to the account. It will be a royal pain in my ass to change since I run my own domain (DNS, WEB, and MAIL).
Just wondering if that is normal, or if my account is up, but I dont know my IP addresses yet.
Any comments/thoughts welcome G |
