Help with Buffalo Router

Logla · Jun 17, 2004, 08:37 PM

I just got my new Buffalo router and CardBus wireless setup this afternoon.

After spending about 5 hours getting it to work properly I have realised how little I know about networking.

I need to setup the NAT routing tables to properly firewall the router but dont know how.

Can anyone help? I found this very easy to do on my old netgear router but it is very confusing on this now setup.

EDIT: Got it sorted.

Must say though, this is an absolutley cracking piece of kit. - Its small, perfectly formed and is rammed full of features. I cant ever see me going back to using wired lan again.

I now have an old compaq laptop - 300MHz w/64MB and the bundled cardbus card works a treat in that.

I can now finallly browse DH whilst keeping my girl company which means everyone in this house is a winner.

It's definitely an experience if you've never messed around with wifi before when you do. I do have to say it is rather nice being able to sick back infront of the "Telly" (For Logla) and also be on-line at the same time.
