Re: Switching to TalkTalks network


[re: Oliver341] [link to this post]
 
It looks to be there, but the best thing is for me to give you screen shots of the relevant page of the GUI, then with the three or four relevant options opened (one at a time), including opening the built-in help feature for the option. That will take me a while.

The thing is I have never done any port forwarding or anything like that so although it may look fine to me someone who understands the subject may notice something missing. If you see what I mean.

It's likely to be Friday now - I shall have plenty of time then.

There is considerable current discussion about this router and the other one that Three can provide in the mobile broadband forum. The other one isn't available in this deal as far as I know, and looks more like a lightweight. Though I seem to remember someone posting it had something they need that the B311 doesn't. Maybe it is actually better?

You might find that useful. I stopped reading it as it became not relevant to me.

PS: I now have a BQM running. Link in my sig. It's a dynamic address but seems to hold as long as the router is not disconnected. It takes only a couple of minutes for me to update the IP Address if I do turn it off or reboot it any time.

My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk. Domains, site and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Three 4G, tbb tests normally 35-45Mpbs down, 65Mbps off-peak, 9-24 up. BQM

If you never think of anything off the wall, you'll never think of anything original.

Thank for that. I found this thread:

https://forums.thinkbroadband.com/mobilebroadband/f/...

Apparently with the 3internet APN, there is no CGNAT.

With the three.co.uk APN, there is CGNAT.

That would account for CGNAT on my phone, which uses the three.co.uk APN.

I'm guessing then that you are using the 3internet APN, since you are able to ping it remotely. In which case, assuming the port forwarding stuff in the B311 is functional, it should work fine.

But IPv6 would be nicer. wink

Oliver.

That was the thread that started all the talk about the Three offerings. Obviously I've read all of that as I made the opening post!

I was more referring to this thread.

I forget where my B322 gets back to, but my phone with the true unlimited SIM uses three.ie.

But we really are hijacking this thread. This is nothing at all to do with the subject, and your suggestion that this conversation might help others doesn't really work. Look at the Subject of this thread smile.
