| 1266376 | 2012-03-22 19:27:00 | Hey PCworld, I have an extra wifi router and was thinking about options how could i use it. It would be great to use as a proxy server or something like that, but I have no idea if it is doable. I have a ZyXEL P660HW-B1A which I am using currently and aditional router is ZyXEL P660HW-D1 is it possible to do anything like that? |

| 1266377 | 2012-03-22 19:44:00 | I'm confused what you're trying to accomplish... you can probably use it as a wireless range extender to increase your coverage area a little, but beyond that, not a lot... | inphinity (7274) | ||
| 1266378 | 2012-03-22 22:31:00 | Pointless. If you want anonymity you need to break away from any form of wire or cable connection (with tracable IP address), all of which tie you to an address and an account. A wireless pre-pay/topup connection can be anonymous, but if you're up to serious mischief you should be aware your location can be narrowed down with wireless as well. You'd really have to consider your machines other ID features, MAC address and a whole bunch of other stuff.. Face it, you can be traced, so behave yourself, unless you want to spend your online life mobile from the back of a van... but that's not much of a life. |

| 1266379 | 2012-03-23 00:48:00 | thanks for replies, I was going to use my anonymity to be able to visit live streaming sites which are allowed only in US. So i'm not hiding from law or something:D I Heard SSH tunnel can be done or maybe DMZ protection? I just dont want to have it useless, plus it would be nice practice for me. both routers are wireless |

| 1266380 | 2012-03-23 02:38:00 | You cant do it they way you are thinking of. :thumbs: www.freeproxy.ru http://www.anonymizer.com/ Not sure if they will allow the speed & total data size you'll need to stream vids, not for free anyway ?? Do some site just block anonymizers anyway ?? |

So i'm not hiding from law or something:D Well, yes, that IS avoiding the law ... I Heard SSH tunnel can be done You still need an endpoint inside their valid IP range or maybe DMZ protection?:confused: DMZ == NO protection ... |

| 1266383 | 2012-03-23 19:27:00 | Sign up for Hide my ass, they are very good. http://hidemyass.com/ You could put DDWRT on the router or if it supports VPN natively, use that to connect to the HMA VPN server. You dont need the router tho. You can easily use the provided HMA program on your computers. Only problem is if you want to use more than 2x devices, if you use the wireless router it will only count as one device (but you can connect many more to it) but if the program is installed on each computer they will count as separate devices and you are not allowed more than two. |

| 1266384 | 2012-03-23 21:09:00 | Using an SSH tunnel simply means your tunnelled traffic appears to emanate from the machine on the other end of the tunnel i.e. it is a proxy To get around location restricted services, you need a proxy in the allowed region. A DMZ offers no protection, it is simply making your machine FULLY EXPOSED to the internet. |
