<p class=MsoNormal>I’m trying to access Opensim from within my intranet and
also externally. I’ve given up trying to resolve the ‘Waiting
for Region Handshake’ issue within Opensim and decided to buy a router
with NAT loopback instead. The Opensim forums suggest the NETGEAR WRN2000
has this feature. In Europe, the version which supports ADSL is called
the DGN2000. According to everything I have read this is the same as the WRN2000
except it has the built-in ADSL modem. So I bought the DGN2000 and have
just finished setting it up … and it doesn’t seem to have solved my
problem, lol.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The wiki also says that the firmware version should be v1.2.3.7.
However, the latest firmware update available for Europe for the DGN2000 is
v1.1.8.0. There doesn’t seem to be anywhere in the setup which
explicitly refers to ‘loopback’, although it does have the ability to
select QoS for various games and applications.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone successfully used the DGN2000 in Europe, in
loopback mode?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is there any way of testing whether it actually is doing
loopback or not? I tried pinging my current ISP assigned IP address and
that was successful – but I’m not convinced that means loopback is
enabled.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Any help appreciated – regards, Kevin<o:p></o:p></p>
