You may need to use additional LAN switch; otherwise it takes too long for Linux to configure interface after link up (which is what happens when you connect Linux directly).
Ok, that rings a bell. In the howto they spoke about using a second fritz box, I would suppose to do exactly that. I have a spare microtic router. I will try to set it up to the same subnet, so provided I have the fritzbox in lan mode, would I then communicate to the port 2 or to the port 1?
Usually it does not matter.
The router (the spare one) typically will have a 4 port switch on the "output" side. Just connect the computer to one, and your problem router to another; if the router has an input port, leave it empty. The configuration of the spare router does not matter, because you are using it as switch. Set the computer to fixed IP, not auto. so, to understand. router fb(fritzbox) - router MT - laptop fix ip - standard ip - fix ip
| Bad Router Spare router | | | | | +-------------+ +----------------laptop Some IP some other IP (non dhcp)
that should do. Why is ist such a PITA to get OSS firmware running on a machine???? E.g. to have coreboot on my X201, I would have to manipulate the NAND with a special reader opening the housing and if not enough, there is a difference in how I would deactivate the proprietary and filzy IME (total or partial...) a PITA wherever you go. Intel should go really OSS with their IME. I cannot understand why this is still no the case. For AMD the same. Wondering who is waking up first. Sorry for the rant. But I hate to have waste while the hardware like the AVM 3370 is perfectly fitting as home router for a lot of issues.
Oh, I agree heartily. Writing openrouter software to a router is sometimes a pain in the nameless because manufacturers do not facilitate repurposing their machines. Just buy another machine. I did it once. Flashing it was easy, but using it was a pain, because the management web page had so little memory that it was terribly slow, like minutes to respond to each action, and some actions would take half an hour or crash it. I tried another time, and the procedure this time was described as difficult. Soldering pins to create a management serial port. Uff. I abandoned. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
