Anyone from Zuku on the list? I need some support. We have a client who is running the Zuku Triple Play Internet connection which I understand issues a dynamic IP to the (Router). This connection is shared between two companies and we are looking at how to separate the two networks so that they users cant access files across. Which is the best way of doing this? Right now all the PCs in the two companies are getting dynamic IPs from the Zuku Router which means its a really open network. Any pointers? -- *---------------------------------------------------- Kind Regards, Evans Ikua,* lanetconsulting.com, lpi-eastafrica.org, ict-innovation.fossfa.net, Skype: @ikuae Cell: +254-722-955831

Not sure Zuku will sort you out with this - but maybe their service levels have improved, given what I have heard on this and other forums. What you need to do though should be as simple as getting two small routers, like those D-Links. Configure each on a different subnet and cascade them to the Zuku router on their WAN interfaces - their WAN interfaces can be configured on DHCP . Let them do NAT while acting as DHCP Servers internally as well. Connect each company's switch to a different router and your problem is solved. Hopefully. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.
Sounds plausible Washington. I will explore that and see if it works. Thanks a lot for your help and have a great day. Evans On Wed, Jun 27, 2012 at 1:48 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:

HI, im on zuku triple play and its not a business solution but is cheap. I have 2 networks and accomplished this by having 2 dlink routers for each and it works for me. I created 2 different internal dns servers for each router and voila, it worked! Hope this helps. On another note, I also created a dual wan system, I have safcom 3g modem and zuku as isps with load balancing. Why? Because zuku is not reliable… Sham From: skunkworks-bounces@lists.my.co.ke [mailto:skunkworks-bounces@lists.my.co.ke] On Behalf Of Odhiambo Washington Sent: June-27-12 1:49 PM To: Skunkworks Mailing List Subject: Re: [Skunkworks] ZUKU TriplePlay On Wed, Jun 27, 2012 at 1:19 PM, Evans Ikua <ikua.evans@gmail.com> wrote: Anyone from Zuku on the list?

Thanks Sham for the insights. I think it adds spice to what Washington said. I am working on this and will advise how it all goes. Evans On Wed, Jun 27, 2012 at 3:10 PM, Sham Kanji <shamhad@kanji.ca> wrote:
