[Opensim-users] Waiting for Handshake

[Gmail Account]

I have the 2wire 2701HG-B, which I've read does work with OpenSim set up.

But from the sounds of your reply, I guess my question should now be..."How" do I set up my 2wire?

Everything I've read online points to the loopback issue...

Ok, Only asking because this happened to me in the past until I bought a 
decent router.  Are you using a router, and does it have loop back 
capability?  I was using a Belkin router, and without loop back my 
friend could log in, but like you waited forever for region handshake.  
Then I bought a new D-Link Gamer Lounge with Turbo Boost.  If you get 
that router, be sure to turn off that feature.  I am sharing my net with 
my wife.  The router gets confused as to who is on playing a game and 
looses track of who should be getting the best bandwidth and messes 
things up.  But off and everything work beautifully.
