Setting up Vuse (Port forwarding and settings)

First, determine your upload speed here

Then use the chart here to determine what values need to be used.

Remember also to forward your ports, if your NAT score is low or is showing as firewalled.

Getting Synaptic/D-Link DSL-G624T Router To Work (Mepis 6.5)

First, type in this:

su
kate /etc/resolv.conf

Then hash out the entry that's there and add two new nameservers, so it looks like below:

nameserver 208.67.222.222
nameserver 208.67.220.220
#nameserver 192.168.1.1

Save and then retry Synaptic. If the fix works, when you reboot it'll reset, so you need to edit your dhclient.con file to make the fix permanent.

su
cp /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf.bak
kate /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf

Find this line in the code.....

#prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;

and replace it with......

prepend domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220;

(notice I've removed the hash symbol as well as changing the servers).

Next, look for the "domain-name-servers" line, and remove it. The text will look something like this........

request domain-name-servers, subnet-mask, broadcast-address, time-offset, routers, domain-name, host-name, netbios-name-servers, netbios-scope;

Remove the bit that says "domain name servers," making sure you remove the comma too. Save the file and then restart your network. The changes should then hold on reboot.
