# A solution to my DI-524 and DSL-302g issues
So that google might pick this up and offer aid to future generations: Optusnet, DI-524 wireless router, DSL-302g modem, internet access.
As I mentioned earlier, I had the wi-fi network working, but no net access. The router didn’t not appear to be talking to the modem correctly. I didn’t bother calling Optusnet tech support because they weren’t going to help anyway, seeing as how what I was doing was unsupported by them. I was routing around all their attempts to make me their bitch in perpetuity.
So I called D Link tech support and had a solution in a few minutes. My first mistake was trying to use PPPoE(Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) for the WAN connection. I should have been using Dynamic IP and allowing the modem to handle the PPPoE connection. I then had to change the MTU setting from 1500 to 1400, apply the settngs and reboot the router. Connection was then achieved and I proceeded to start opening ports for Bittorrent &c.
I wonder how the fuck it was that I could have worked out this voodoo without being told. The Dynamic IP thing I could have had working, since the router may actually have auto-detected it anyway; it didn’t give any indication it had auto-detected and I changed it to PPPoE because the description said that is what most DSL connections require. But the MTU bit…wah?
