VoxVader Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 (edited) I'd like to set up a router with my True DSL. What is involved in this? True seems to have configured their service in such a way that it is not exactly easy to change hardware. What information (if any) will I need to get from True in order to put my DSL through a router? Any help, experiences and suggests are appreciated! -Vox Edited January 30, 2005 by VoxVader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crushdepth Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 You don't need their hardware. I scraped together some of True's ADSL settings a while back. True's DNS has been giving me headaches lately, but there is a list of alternatives DNS in the PDF file linked in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Most routers are Wizard driven, so it just a matter of putting in a few values and away you go. Strange about the DNS. I am having problems with TOT dns today. It does not seem to be responding at all. So I put in the address for the TRUE DNS server and now all is well. Remember any DNS server in the area will do!! TOT dns is 203.121.130.39 and 40 True I have as 202.176.129.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Boy Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I've heard some sh1t in my time, you should not need any DNS addresses what so ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astral Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 I've heard some sh1t in my time, you should not need any DNS addresses what so ever <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Unless you can remember the ip address for every site that you visit, DNS is an essential part of internet access. Hands up all those who know the ip address for www.thaivisa.com? Of course you do not. DNS translates the name to the address for you. Joey must be assuming that the DNS servers that he uses are reliable and the addresses from his ISP are good. In some countries that may be true, but it is not so in Thailand, sad to say!!
