I asked tp link if they would consider adding the option 60/61 for the likes of Sky - they said it could be implemented into later firmwares so might be a chance yet...

[S.Stephenson]

Seems unlikely as the last firmware update was in 2014, but as the saying goes if you don't ask you don't get.

Thanks for the info, what would be the outcome on this scenario?

I have a micro server which has a WAN static IP for a comms channel and few small game servers I host on it ! Plus I also use it for downloading From newsgroups. So could it still have a assigned or forward WAN static IP as well as get double the download speed on newsgroups ?. Thanks

As the static IP comes from the ISP it will only work through the connection the IP address is from so i'd imagine you'd need to set up a fair amount of policy routing to make sure that all of the services that require the static IP only go through that connection.

As for newsgroups does it support multiple connections?

"I have given feedback to our engineer about supporting the MER function on the TL-ER5120. They will check about this issue and adding that function when possible."..

No time scale given though ...

Not all but some newsgroups do allow multiple IP's. Well that's all good then thanks for your help.

Just need to source a ER5120 and the second line install and hopefully all runs sweet !.

Just slightly off topic, I've just seen my HP Gen8 micro server has 2 NIC's so could I connect 2 cables to the ER5120 and supply two Static IP's one from each ISP to it ?!

Cheers

Morning, I've bought a used TL-ER5120 off eBay and just wondered what would be the best modem/s to plug into it for a ECI Cabinet ? second FTTC install isn't till the 31st May so got some time to fiddle with things.

Thanks

I am on eci cab too. The best sync I have had out of unlocked eci,8800nl,sky router to name a few was and is the zyxel 8324 in bridge mode.

Thanks, isn't it best to have a Lantiq chip on ECI Cab and a Broadcom on a Huawei cab ?

Thanks

[Panda666uk]

For tidiness and screwing it all to the wall under my desk I may just get 2 ECI modems, is it straight forward to unlock them ?! then get a WiFi router and plug it into the ER5120.

Thanks

Not always, different lines seem to prefer one chip set over the other. I'm on ECI and my ZyXel VMG8324-B10A syncs the best, although I haven't tried an ECI or HG612 for a long time.

If you want real time stats uploading to mydslstats etc then the eci modem will not do this regardless of wether its unlocked or not.

You can unlock it  and put openwrt on it (/r modem version) I have done a couple following the posts on kitz. Its not too bad once you get the case off and drill the board.  Ask if you want help...

[Panda666uk]

Not worried about mydslstats etc, just want to be able to see syncing info and G.INP info etc, Let me look through eBay for a couple Rev B r versions and I maybe back for some help on them. Cheers
