    Zyxel ZyWALL USG 20 Works Fine on Comcast Business Internet, but Has Poor Connection on Faster Fiber

    Thanks much for the reply! That is a helpful confirmation regarding the speed issue. The PC connection bouncing is the high priority, though. I can potentially live with the speed limitation, but I can't wrap my mind around why the connection becomes so unreliable just from switching to being...

    Zyxel ZyWALL USG 20 Works Fine on Comcast Business Internet, but Has Poor Connection on Faster Fiber

    Greetings! I have an old Zyxel ZyWALL USG 20 (the first version: https://www.smallnetbuilder.com/lanwan/lanwan-reviews/zyxel-usg20-unified-security-gateway-reviewed/ ) in my small office which has worked fine for years on my Comcast Business Internet (25 Mbps / 5 Mbps). I recently had fiber...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    I definitely do not want to use the Comcast router as my main router. It is a very basic router. I do have access to it and I can change settings (of the very limited settings it has). At this point, unless there is a security concern you can point out to me about my current setup I'm not...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    Hey thanks, I definitely hear you! :) I'm very cautious about this stuff too. And I am using multiple layers of passwords, encryption (eg, Truecrypt), etc. :D But I wanted to be extra sure I had the network stuff working right (since I'd missed something previously) as I don't want someone...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    Yeah, I've been down that road a bunch early on with Comcast and so whatever I have now is apparently the extent of what they can do in my case, which regrettably is not a true bridge mode, as you've observed. That's great! :D The RV042 is for the LAN which houses sensitive data, and the...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    Hey, thanks for chiming in! :) Yeah, what you're saying makes sense. I don't think there's anything I can do about the double-NATing though (apart from paying for IP's, which I don't want to do). From what you're saying I was already double-NATed on the RV042, so my main concern is just...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    I'm confused, because I've got it setup and it is working (at least, I have internet access from both networks, and the VPN works fine). What did you mean by "not going to work"? I may very well be missing something. Here's the info you asked for: RV042 WAN IP: 10.1.10.10 (from SMC Comcast...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    Yeah, I guess I wasn't being very clear--sorry about that! What I meant was having both the RV042 and the E1500 connected directly to the SMC (instead of trying to run the E1500 through the RV042, which was creating the unexpected security problem that I'm trying to solve). The Comcast SMC is...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    That is awesome! Thank you! :D Did you have any thoughts/comments about my realization that I should be able to somehow make the E1500 work directly attached to the Comcast SMC gateway/router (bypassing the RV042 entirely). See my above post for more info. I added all that as an edit...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    Thanks so much for helping me yet again! :) I think I understood what you were saying. The following is what I tried... RV042 IP: 10.1.11.1 RV042 WAN IP: 10.1.10.10 (SMC Comcast gateway IP of 10.1.10.1. RV042 is in SMC DMZ.) E1500 WAN IP: 10.1.11.18 E1500 IP: 10.1.12.1 Turned off...

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router

    How to achieve multiple subnets with RV042 and 2nd router? Greetings, I have a RV042 router with a wifi router (E1500) connected as an Access Point (using this method: http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/wireless/wireless-basics/30338-how-to-convert-a-wireless-router-into-an-access-point). I have...

    ZyWALL USG 20 VLAN Security Setup

    ZyWALL USG 20 VLAN Security Setup

    Thanks much for that suggestion! I looked into that some and it was looking like I was going to have to add additional internal IP addresses (as it seems that the ZyWALL wants each VLAN to have its own IP, in addition to the port-based IPs) and potentially then I was going to have to switch...

    ZyWALL USG 20 VLAN Security Setup

    Greetings, I'm hoping someone can help me with setting up a secure VLAN on my ZyXEL ZyWALL USG 20 as I'm having some difficulty figuring out what I am missing (and the documentation is unfortunately not very helpful in this instance). I am on Firmware Version 3.00(BDQ.2) / 1.14 /...
