Hi Guys,

I have not tried this with a Qube3, so I don't know if it works.  Anyone
else successfully used a Qube3 as an internet gateway when the internet
connection is via an external modem?


hi malcolm,


this is exactly what we do. we have a dsl line into an external modem connected to secondary ethernet on qube3; primary ethernet on qube then goes to switched hub. we have nat and dhcp running, and everything seems to work as it is supposed to.

could the built in basic firewall be stopping your outbound traffic (i.e., some rule that stops your gateway traffic before it can get out of the qube)?

good luck,


mikey.
