Text How to supply internet from home PC to router?

Upvotes

I'm in the process of changing Internet providers, and will be without wired internet for a month.

The new providers, as an interim solution, have offered me a 4G USB dongle to connect to my router or PC - my router doesn't have a USB port so I'm wondering if I can plug the dongle into my PC, have that become the access point and change the router to be a basic network switch instead?

I can't figure out how to change the default DNS Servers to Google DNS Servers on my Verizon Internet Gateway for my Verizon 5G Home Internet. My Verizon router is the ASK-NCM1100.

Could anyone chime in and tell me how to do it if they have done it before? Thank you!

Text Adding EERO to an Xfinity Gateway Modem disables CyberSecurity. Has anyone had issues with this?

1 Upvotes

I currently have an Xfinity gateway modem/router with a 1 gigabyte internet plan.

Because I'm having intermittent connectivity issues (e.g. a green screen or audio/video freezes) with a Samsung smart TV connected through a wireless Xfinity box, I'm thinking of adding an EERO 6 to the gateway.

This requires putting the Xfinity gateway into bridge mode and connecting the EERO device with an ethernet cable.

I think that I'm clear on how to do all that, but according to an Xfinity page, it says that switching the gateway into bridge mode disables things like their CyberSecurity features.

This is Xfinity's monitoring threats like IP repudiation of your network devices. I get alerts through the Xfinity app saying this device on my network was protected from a malicious threat.

My network devices consist of Windows PCs and laptops, Apple iPhone and iPad, Samsung smart TVs, HP printers, PETLIBRO automatic cat feeder, Trane wireless thermostat and Liftmaster garage door opener.

Has anyone added an EERO mesh network to their Xfinity service and had problems with CyberSecurity no longer being available? Thanks.

Text Extending network 750'

3 Upvotes

Trying to help a friends family here but I don't know what equipment is best and need some advice.

They have a very large lot. House in the middle. Guest house 500' behind main house. Front gate 750' in front of the house. They want a ring doorbell at the front gate - I have 120v out there. They want wifi in the guest house. I have a single cat5 from the router to the chimney where they had an old extender. I don't want to go fancy, it's just a couple of older folks in the house that want a camera doorbell and want their guests to have some internet in the guest house.

I've looked at the Swann MaxRanger stuff to put the swann doorbell at the front gate but they won't sell just the equipment to do that, you have to buy cameras as well which runs the cost up and they don't want cameras. Ubiquiti seems like overkill and I haven't had the best luck with their outdoor stuff (lots of lightning here).

Wondering what y'all would do in a case like this.

Text Conectado sin internet en Android

1 Upvotes

Hola. Estoy presentado este problema en mi equipo, específicamente desde que cambié el NIC que se encarga de la LAN a una Huawei SP330 con chip Intel X710-DA2.

El problema es que en los equipos Android (TV, smartphone) sin importar la marca no logran conectarse a Internet cuando uso opnsense como router con este NIC, negocian la IP por DHCP sin problemas pero no hay Internet ni acceso a otros equipos usando la interfaz web. También he notado que el NAS Synology no está negociando la IP en DHCP pero si colo IP fija tengo acceso sin problemas tanto dentro como fuera de la red. La app de Tuya y LG funcionan si estoy en la red pero por fuera de la red no se conectan a los dispositivos, en cambio tengo una cámara Xiaomi que sí se conecta desde fuera de la red.

Ya he seguido todos los pasos que me recomendaba Gemini para solucionar este problema pero ninguno funcionó, tanto el firmware de la X710 como Opnsense están actualizados, ya hasta reinstalé el sistema ya que antes de este Intel tenía una Realtek RT8127 para la lan y todo funcionaba perfectamente en todos los dispositivos, y ahora solo funcionan bien los que tienen iOS y Windows.

Espero que alguien con hardware similar pueda ayudarme

Text Dell WD19/WD19S dock causing 802.1X to fall back to MAB — EAPOL not passing?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m troubleshooting an 802.1X issue with a Dell laptop connected through a Dell WD19/WD19S dock.

Topology:

Laptop → Dell Dock → Ethernet → Switch

When I connect the laptop directly to the switch, 802.1X works perfectly and the endpoint authenticates using dot1x.

However, when I connect the same laptop through the Dell dock:

- The switch learns the laptop's actual MAC address

- Forescout sees the laptop correctly

- But authentication is MAB instead of 802.1X

- It looks like the PC's EAPOL/802.1X frames aren't reaching the switch, causing the port to fall back to MAB

The PC's 802.1X configuration is working because it authenticates successfully when connected directly.

Has anyone experienced 802.1X/EAPOL not passing through a Dell WD19/WD19S dock?

Could this be related to MAC passthrough, dock firmware, Realtek Ethernet drivers, or EAPOL pass-through?

What was the fix in your case? Did updating the dock firmware/driver resolve it, or did you have to change a switch/dock/BIOS setting?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

The other day at around 1am our WiFi abruptly turned off, we phoned the provider and they said they will send a new router but it’s going to take a couple of days at least, if anyone has any ideas on how to fix PPP connecting it would be much appreciated, I’ve tried a factory reset of the router as well.
Company is utility warehouse (trash) and the router is a Technicolor of some sort. The status light is red and the internet light flashes red. Everything else is green
