[Tfug] Qwest Motorola 3347

[Rich]

Anyone else had problems with the Motorola 3347 dsl modem + wireless  
router?

I had a perfectly good 2-wire modem + wireless router, but Qwest  
pushed a firmware update which killed the wireless side. (I still  
have that if anyone can help out there.)

So, three promises of a replacement 2-wire modem and three Motorola  
3347s later, I'm stuck.

Everything works, except for routing between machines on the LAN. So,  
I can connect wirelessly or wired; I can connect to the Internet. The  
only thing I cannot do is, for example, ssh to another box on the  
LAN. I'm just using IP addresses.

I can ping, I can broadcast ping. Can't do ssh.

I managed to set up a VLAN, and all my machines could suddenly  
communicate with each other -- except there was no routing from the  
VLAN to the Internet!

I think that's the heart of the problem -- somehow, machines on the  
regular LAN (no VLAN) are being routed to the Internet, rather than  
on the LAN, despite using IP addresses.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks!
Rich.
