Hi,
I am currently trying to test connection speeds in my area between Vodacom, CellC and 8ta to see which is faster and more stable.
Only problem is I have no idea how to set up Ubuntu to use the 3g router as the internet connection.
I am also trying to keep it as close to our proxy server's settings as possible so that once it is set up I can go test it there with each sim.
How do I go about setting this up?
I have tried the following (ip's are changed from what I am using) but when I connect the router it prevents me from connecting to the LAN and I still can't get onto the internet.
The router is already configured to run on vodacom and 3g is active and working.
Router IP
LAN (NIC 0)
IPv4> 111.111.0.11
Subnet> 255.255.255.0
Gateway> 111.111.1.1
DNS> My DNS servers IP Addresses (eg 111.111.0.3 111.111.0.6)
Search Domains> Windowsdomainname.local
3g Router (NIC 1)
IPv4> 111.111.1.11
Subnet> 255.255.255.0
Gateway> 111.111.1.1
DNS>
Search Domains>
Routes> Use this connection only for resources on its network is ticked (no actual routes specified).
How do I get this to work?
Thank you in advance
