skaftaHello to all of you, I want to assign a static ip to my pc (to maintain open ports in filesharing). What should be the simpliest way to?13:57
GridCubeit depends on your router, look how to do that on your router on the internet14:00
GridCubeits different for every router out there, but usually quite trivial14:01
redbladeskafta: you can set a static ip in networkmanager settings, and forward ports using your router's settings. alternatively, a lot of routers (including dd-wrt based ones) allow you to create "static dhcp" by having the router assign a specific ip to a mac address.14:06
skaftahave found it on router side - thanks very much for your help14:08
redbladeif your router offers "static dhcp" as an option, when combined with port forwarding settings, that is the easiest way14:08
redbladeyou're welcome :)14:08
redbladealso, avoid use of upnp14:08
redbladeit's more secure to disable upnp and forward ports manually14:09
xubuntu07ihello everybody17:29
