Hello,
can anybody explain me how this stuff works on BT side?
we order BT bussines broadband with 5 static ip and receive such information:
You’ve ordered a range of Static IP addresses, which contains 8 addresses from 81.*.*.217 to 81.*.*.221. Three of these are reserved:
Equipment that i have is:
Wi-Fi router Cyberoam CR25wiNG and DSL modem TP-LINK TD-8817
I have setup DSL to connect to internet, but each time then it's connect - it got different IP adress.
I need at least one of IP adress (.221) will be accessible from WAN to do VPN via it. So I put DSL modem to bridge mode, but if I a set static IP adress to WAN interface - it's want go. If dinamic - everthing ok. I can connect to internet.
So my question is - how can i use one of static IP to have it accessible outside? Anybody can please explain that? I do not need direct instruction how to setup my equipment, but I would like (if that posible) got a "path" in generall how to use it.
As I undestand once dsl modem have a connection (no bridge mode) it's should be assigned to 81.*.*.222 and from any LAN computers i should see thi IP as my external IP?
Also what doest it mean "network address"?
Hi Dimitrij,
You should check out the following thread:
I documented how to use Static IPs with a BT Hub in:
I hope that helps.

Thanks DAFlippers! It's helps a little to undestand, however this picture put all to the right places:
I find it in that topic: http://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php?topic=2179.0
Finaly I got connected, put DSL modem to bridge mode without NAT, Cyberoam PortB set as dinamic IP and PPOE with BT credentials, PortA use for local network: 192.168.*.0 and PortC set as one of static IP - via it i can connect remotely now. Ntxt step for me will be setup a VPN with another Cyberoam but it's already another story 🙂
