talbyfish Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 I currently have a a dlink modem/router used in modem mode wired up to a dlink 615 (I think) router with ddwrt installed. Ports forwarded and qos set for xbox. I also have a brand new talktalk huawei HG 533 modem/router. Whats the best way to set up?? Do I need port forward if I have open nat anyway?

Hi, Firstly thanks for purchasing. I would personally recoomend you keep the dlink router in modem mode connected to the wall. Then connect the R1 router to any other port on the d-link router. Then connect ALL of you devices(wired and wifi) to the netduma router. Then you should be good to go. Let me know how you get on please
talbyfish Posted December 10, 2014 Author Posted December 10, 2014 So will that make my dlink router settings redundant? Should I set it back to default?
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 So will that make my dlink router settings redundant? Should I set it back to default? No, I would leave it the way it is. As long as its behaving in modem mode then that's the optimum set up.
talbyfish Posted December 10, 2014 Author Posted December 10, 2014 Ok so I dont need the second router with ddwrt installed. Just modem and netduma.?

That is what I would recommend, the second router would just make NAT issues more complicated. We're confident our anti-flood and device prioritisation will match your needs.

[/quote'] I noticed from your other thread, that the anti-flood feature is a key feature you require. Is your broadband speed over 50mbits. If so you'll need to use our reactive algorithm. I'll show how to select it if need be.

Do you or anyone you live with torrent by any chance?
