just got the plan up today! so far so good

How long do you have to wait from the day you signed up with Starhub to the actual day of activation from Opennet?

it varies between users.

no point asking imo.

mine only took a day, some took a week.. some even 2months.

Hi Gribber,

Seems like the DLink DVG N5402SP not able to do port forwarding for 443.

And idea why?

Isn't this supposed to be scheduled on a first come first serve basis?

WAN port range perhaps ?

WAN port range perhaps ?

Is for my WD Live Book device, need to enable port forwarding for both TCP 80 and 443 to allow cloud storage.

change it to something else.

no such thing as MUST BE port 80 and 443. If is, dump the WD Live book as it is stupid.

else, you could map your router settings as eg..

for WD Live - 80/443
but on router 8888/4443

then from outside you should be able to talk to it by using eg.. WANIP:8888 or WANIP:4443


Starhub for one already block 80 and what have you got.

i'm using starhub, i did not sign for the digital home line, means no voip right?
So can i bypass my Huawei Voice Home Gateway HG256s and seek to use my own router behind the ONT?

Yes, only Asus n56u or n66u. If you're tech savvy, then any router that support VLAN id tagging.

1. as what ngbc said
2. force starhub to let you use any router - achievable.

if you still don't get it, read and read and read it again till you get it.

Beside the very expensive Asus, is the Linksys E4200 any good or ?

imho, linksys is never good.

For the price, i might just go for ASUS. The E4200 is considered overprice for the lousier performance over the ASUS N66/56
