From there, download the Gargoyle firmware (Look on the side of the TP-Link Box and it'll tell you it's probably a v3.8 or something hardware revision). Once you have that, you can then follow through with the blog. It's probably in need of a rewrite now that I think about it...	Chilling_Silence (9)

1355979	2013-10-16 06:29:00	All went well! A few hairy moments with the Vigor and some fear as I updated the firmware on the TP link device:eek:. But your tutorial is good and I've read your new one and I like what you've done there:cool: A question, I have these linux servers that'll need "network interfaces" adjusted. I feel I should use the Gargoyle's ip (192.168.122.1) as gateway, rather than the modems ip (192.168.1.1), do you think that's correct? Oh! and many thanks Chill, for steering me down this path:thumbs:	jcr1 (893)
1355980	2013-10-16 10:36:00	Yes, correct. They'll now need IP's on the 192.168.122.X range :) Glad it's going food for ya mate!	Chilling_Silence (9)
1355981	2013-10-16 18:54:00	Yes, correct. They'll now need IP's on the 192.168.122.X range :) Glad it's going food for ya mate! Any chance, Chill, that I could change the Vigor modems ip to one in a range outside my LAN i.e. from 192.168.1.1 to say 192.168.23.1.? Then everything I have setup with the 192.168.1.... range would be the same. Then all I'd have to do is the dynamic dns and port forwarding in the router. Mind you what started off as just a simple home web server, to mainly show photos and things to family, has grown into a monster:horrified. With a small AMD machine, as my first attempt and now a Hypervisor (Proxmox) containing 2 other servers. I think the time might've come for rationalisation, when I think about it - how many web servers do I need:confused:	jcr1 (893)
1355982	2013-10-16 21:37:00	Yeah that works fine, you can just swap the IP of Gargoyle and the DrayTek.. Just as long as they're on different ranges, coz if you try and have them both on the same 192.168.1.X then the Gargoyle routers gonna go "Hmmm I dunno if I should route this out the LAN or the WAN so I'll just do nothing with it". So if you were to set the Gargoyle to 192.168.1.1 for its LAN, leave its WAN on DHCP still, and set the DV120 to 192.168.23.1, that'll still work just fine :)	Chilling_Silence (9)

Samba works on a couple of servers, without having to go through all that awful configuration again :groan:	jcr1 (893)
1355984	2013-10-19 18:58:00	Port forwarding, so I can get my webserver going again has proven to be a bit of a mission:horrified I was just about ready to call it quits and sell the Vigor on Trademe, smashed into a thousand pieces, when, for my last try, I found someone on the internet, who was at the same level of frustration:confused: So I set the Vigor modem to PPPoe passthrough, then on the Gargoyle router, in the internet/wan section, I set it to PPPoE (wired) and used my internet user credentials. Plus assigning to my server's /etc/network/interfaces the gateway ip address, of the router (router ip in Local network/LAN section). Then voila, it all worked:thumbs:. No internet light on the modem though. Chill, does this all sound OK to you?	jcr1 (893)
