Speedtouch 585 problem - any ideas?


[link to this post]
 
I've just received a new Speedtouch 585 today and I'm experiencing heaps of problems trying to configure it correctly. What I want to do is the following:

Assign a single IP address to all the computers in the house using private NAT/DHCP.
Assign the remaining static IP addresses on my Zen account to my Linux server.

The best I can currently do is either NAT/DHCP for everyone or static IP addresses for everyone.

Going the all static IP route I'd need something like 8-10 of them for all the internet-enabled devices connecting to the router. Given IP addresses are a precious resource requiring justification I don't think Zen will be approving additional IP addresses on my account to simplify setup of my Speedtouch router Nor should they.

The way I used to have this setup was one Speedtouch 510 and connecting a separate Wireless Router to the Speedtouch. The wireless router had a single IP address for all the devices, and my Linux desktop was the only device connected directly to the Speedtouch... making assigning IPs as I needed simple.

Can anyone give me some advice how to achieve what I want? Or recommend a really good setup guide that might help me get this done. The electronic documentation is pretty poor.

Not going to shoot you but I'm sure you appreciate how frustrating it can be for some to read a post, reply to it and then find the same post in another forum where the person has already received responses.
