RB750GL with DSL as WAN

Apologies, being new to MK. Here I have basic issues:

I have RB750GL connect on Ether1 having DSL dhcp as it is.

On ether2 - ether5 I have 4-port switch with master ether2

How I connect any PC or Laptop on my LAN interface to browse Internet and configure VPN pptp.

How I can I block DSL Wi-Fi to get IP for Internet browsing?

DO I need to have DSL in Bridge Mode (As its working on Routing MOde now)

Thanks

Hi,

Both scenarios are Ok, but i prefer 2nd option ( modem in bridge). That’s way better and easier way to get to the goal.
In that case, you neet to put DSL to bridge, and then optimize WAN config on 750 according to your ISP requirements.

With current config whats the issue you are experiencing? Post export of your current config ?

Hi, Thanks for your quick reply.

I have described issues in my post.

I want to configure remote VPN to the machines behind the LAN through pptp VPN client of Windows (How to do that)

I want to make RB750 as Internet gateway but ether2-ether4 connected devices are not getting it.

I want to apply different filters and rules like streaming, p2p, Facebook on selected user groups.

Note : My ISP allocates WAN IP address (public IPv4) through DSL router with DNS and NAT on DSL router through private IP network : 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.1.1 is gateway/DNS.

Hi,

it is not clear how do you authenticate on your ISP infrastructure.

[]“My ISP allocates WAN IP address (public IPv4) through DSL router with DNS and NAT on DSL router through private IP network : 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.1.1 is gateway/DNS” How? - PPPoE, DHCP/MAC,IP Block statically routed to you … ?
[
]You want to allow external users to connect to your network via PPTP tunnel or you want to allow PPTP from your private network to some external resource?
In first case you could use any tutorial on net ( there are alot of them), and should switch your DSL modem to bride mode, because of excluding double NAT on network.
[] “I want to make RB750 as Internet gateway but ether2-ether4 connected devices are not getting it.” Do you have a masquerade rule in your IP/NAT?
[
]“I want to apply different filters and rules like streaming, p2p, Facebook on selected user groups.” This depends of method of grouping users. Address pools, ACL’s etc etc…

hi,

DSL is PPPoE in routing mode and dhcp server allocates Private IP range : 192.168.1.0/24. RB750 is connected on ether-1 with DSL modem. Ether-1 is also having dhcp enabled.

Ether 2-5 are grouped together as switch.

Simple Query : How a PC connected on any ether2-5 will get IP or what IP range should be given here,
I want other pptp tunnel from external Internet (incoming) to access my PC on Ether2-4

how IP masquerade will work.

please give me tutorial links available.

Hi there.

Silence is good as most of issues I have fixed after going through websites having links to tutorials (although there are some audio issues or English subtitles not available).

My new query is about : ISP does not allow to bring modem in bridge mode then how we can implement remote access to my devices behind RB750 using existing DSL connections being in routing mode. I tried some work around like using web-config to bridge my LAN ports with WAN, but I screwed up with RB behaving abnormally. Anybody can help me?

Second Query: Do I need the DSL in bridge mode if I use web proxy or L7 regexp for allowing or blocking few sites? can I use transparent caching and L7 filtering at the same time?

Third Query : with RB750 how many remote VPN connections can work at one time (simultaneously)

I will be grateful if any geek helps me being novice on MK.

Thanks
