RE: Re: [OT]ish Router +modem problem

["Peter Church" <yahoo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Nick,



Yes the numbers changed slightly as I switched the 3rd digit of the subnet,
but the problem remains the same.



Here are the results of the Trace Routes:



>tracert -h 4 192.168.1.1



Tracing route to 192.168.1.1 over a maximum of 4 hops

1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  192.168.1.1

Trace complete.



>tracert -h 4 192.168.2.101

Tracing route to e.home [192.168.2.101] over a maximum of 4 hops:

1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  192.168.1.1

2     2 ms     2 ms     2 ms  e.home [192.168.2.101]

Trace complete.



>tracert -h 4 212.58.246.94

Tracing route to bbc-vip015.cwwtf.bbc.co.uk [212.58.246.94] over a maximum
of 4 hops:

1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  192.168.1.1

2     2 ms     1 ms     1 ms  e.home [192.168.2.101]

3     *        *        *     Request timed out.

4    87 ms    88 ms    99 ms  193.120.29.125

Trace complete.



I also checked this over more hops and it does get there in 13 hops.  It is
interesting that the domain name is listed which means DNS is working, but
I
guess it is that 3rd hop that is causing the problem.  Any idea what that
means?



I disabled DNS on the modem and gave the router a fixed IP address and the
ISP supplied DNS IPs and the same result occurs.



Out of interest I ran a trace route with the Modem acting as the DHCP (when
I can get the internet to work) and received this result:



1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  e.home [192.168.2.101]

2     *        *        *     Request timed out.

3    98 ms    99 ms    99 ms  217.112.145.125.gvnx.com [217.112.145.125]

4   127 ms   139 ms   138 ms  xe1-2-0-10.tcr1.thn.lon.as8218.eu
[213.152.31.16



So it looks like that Time Out is consistent, but not a killer!  Perhaps
interesting that the next hop IP is in a different range to the others?





The current status of the modem is:

DHCP - Off - fixed IP address

Firewall - Off

DMZ - Disabled

Virtual Servers (port routings) - None

UPnP - Enabled



Any thoughts?


Thanks for your time reading this!



Cheers



Pete
