Vonage Is the FVS318 set up as a DHCP server and the adapter set up to receive its IP dynamically?
Is the FVS318 set up as a DHCP server and the adapter set up to receive its IP dynamically? YES
I believe dynamic addressing is the default for the adapter. If the FVS is not set up as a server, then you'll have to change either the FVS or the adapter. The FVS is a DHCP server and will give the V2442 an IP address, but it does not communicate with the Internet. I have no filters or port blocking on the router - the Tivo's would not be able to update if I did.
The VT2442 does acquire an IP address on its WAN port from my router - but I still cannot surf thru it.
When you say the adapter will only work when its plugged directly into the modem, I assume you mean that you get neither phone service nor internet service through the adapter when you put it behind the router? CORRECT.
Are both phone service and internet service OK when the adapter is plugged directly into the modem? YES
I assume that you don't want to put the FVS behind the adapter because the adapter isn't the best router in the world. Is that correct? YES.
I would use that Vonage router - but I have tried changing its LAN IP address to fit my scheme and it will not work - it will not assign it addresses at all when I do that, and you cannot even ping it or open the GUI, or telnet in over port 80. It's also out of laziness. I have a lot of devices on my network and a lot of static IP's so I know what is what:
4 Wireless AP's (3-802.11a & 1- G)
3 Tivos
1 ReadNAS storage
1 Dell CN3100 Laser printer
6 PC's
2 Macs
Pretty much everything is static IP, but anything else that plugs in will acquire an IP via DHCP. I also have a ton of services and ports that are forwarded...PPTP, IPSEC, TERMSERV, FTP, uTorret...and to recreate all that would also be a huge pain...so it would just be a whole lot easier to keep the FVS 318 in place with the IP scheme as well.
Many thanks!
