    Accessing bridged modem

    Hello everyone. I have cable internet at home and always had the modem set as bridge, using a TP-Link 1043ND as main router (192.168.0.1 on the LAN). I used to access the modem, if needed, using 192.168.100.1 address. But sometime ago I changed my router to a Netgear R7300 (using same LAN IP and...

    SOLVED: A specific website makes my connection "drops"

    Am I still on CGNAT?

    Hello everyone. Long story short: I was on CGNAT and asked my provider to give me a real and unique IPv4 connection. They said they did it. Now I see the same IP on Speedtest and my modem status page. Before I was seeing different IPs, showing I was behind another router. Now I noticed, using...

    Backup for only some folders

    Hi everyone. I ordered a Synology DS212j and I'm not really sure what HDs I'll put on it. I was thinking of two 2TB WD Red, in RAID, with one of the drives only for backup. But I don't have so much important data to backup. So, is it possible to have one 2TB HD and one 1TB HD, having the...
