3/ Would the NBN Network Terminating Device which appears to be a fibre-optic router m/n 1-240G-R ;which has an Ethernet connection to the Linksys 2000 have a local IP address ?; talking to the cable tech's who installed the NTD it would seem to have an external IP address; any way to determine this ?
I don't have a NBN connection myself, so I can't verify the details, however I believe the NBN appears as an (long) Ethernet connection all the way to your ISP and as such your terminator has no IP address.
1/Can you elaborate on what is meant by : " (long) Ethernet connection all the way to your ISP and as such your terminator has no IP address." ? 2/ Does this mean no local(on my LAN) or public internet IP ? 3/ Does this mean it's only IP address is as a local device on the ISP's LAN ?
I also believe that the terminator is entirely owned by NBN and as such NBN are fully responsible for its configuration.
