An 'entity' should never begin a sentence with the following word --> And . There was a period placed after the entire line. Thus declaring the sentence as complete. I apologize for my misunderstanding of the language. Never ever start a sentence with the following -> "And, If, Or, But. Uppercase or lower case lettering it simply does not matter. +-- paul g From: ryan.coleman at cwis.biz Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2015 00:29:23 -0600 To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org Subject: Re: [tclug-list] DHCP address reservation on Q1000 modem - Question. Bi-polar maybe? Just three days ago you thanked me. Two months ago you asked me to teach you what I knew about BSD. Please pay attention to the tenor of the emails others write on this list and follow suit. We don’t stumble over our emails, request forgiveness for not knowing, etc. But we also use all the tools at our disposal. And I’ll be honest - you’re now offending people… that’s not a good place to be.—Ryan On Feb 4, 2015, at 10:51 PM, paul g <pj.world at hotmail.com> wrote: I have not been able to ever use anything you suggested to me in YOUR remarks to my questions thus far labeled as useful. It probably would be best that we no longer correspond between each other. Your answers are fast and dumb and by the word dumb I mean that. they cover such a wide approach that anyone using a search engine just has to read more information. To be quite honest with you I also see a state worker as being partially needy as you spend my tax dollars on unnecessary devices. You have a good day sir. +- paul g From: ryan.coleman at cwis.biz Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2015 22:14:05 -0600 To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org Subject: Re: [tclug-list] DHCP address reservation on Q1000 modem - Question.

When I did initially acquire the Actiontec Q1000 device. I initially depressed and held the 'reset button' of course when the device is/was connected to the A/C power source but had kept/held the device back from the attachment of the LAN. For the duration of what I believe to be approximately 30 - 35 seconds. After that I kept the Actiontec Q1000 device off the LAN and 'hardwired' the Q1000 to my laptop via a 'cat 5' Ethernet cable. I then opened the Actiontec Q1000 interface GUI via the Firefox webrowser and within the Actiontec GUI --> Quick-Setup the device was listed under PPPoE ru1020.net <-- So of course that made me think 'why is this device listed under ru1020.net when I had just depressed the reset button for half a minute or more'?. Then I continued and attached the Q1000 device into the DSL service - RJ11 jack that I have outfitted exclusively for the most 'short/easy' DSL entry to this dwelling. Same thing pulled up: ru1020.net on PPPoe I have at this time switched the PPP username to the properly acquired and established account name listed for my dwelling.

Probably not. 2a. I believe I have no devices currently on the LAN utilizing the same 'MAC' address as the above 'DHCP' output has provided. Can I now safely 'remove' the above listed 'entities' from the DHCP Reservation List? Can you confirm you don’t have these on your LAN? Oh 3A has important information - it’s a brand new modem. Confirm anyway. I have tools I use but they’re not Linux apps. 3a. As per last week I was able to return the 'leased' ZyXel c1000z and have noticed by using the newly acquired Actiontec Q1000. Speeds are the same but the device has possible 'leakage' Are you aware of ports being actively left open on the Actiontec Q1000 device by any chance? I’ve never been a fan of the Actiontec modems. They’re pretty cheap and I almost always put a piece of hardware in-between them and my network (like my netgate pfsense boxes). _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota tclug-list at mn-linux.org http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list_______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota tclug-list at mn-linux.org http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota tclug-list at mn-linux.org http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list_______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota tclug-list at mn-linux.org http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota tclug-list at mn-linux.org http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list_______________________________________________TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesotatclug-list at mn-linux.orghttp://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota tclug-list at mn-linux.org http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
