That seems the end of the road I am afraid. Unless the developers would kindly implement a mechanism to pass those packet through to the modem and returning packets to the monitor app like it is works in switch devices.
@renne: If you get the DSLAK.dll loading error, do you have the WinPCAP LIbrary/Utility installed on your Windows System? I just installed the DSLMonitor on my Machine and hit the same error, but once I had winpcap installed the error was gone. n8v8r probably had it installed already as part of the Wireshark Installation.
Now I have hit the same problem as n8v8r… I bridged the Interfaces together on the turris, but no connection is possible. I’ll try to get my hands on a switch with an SFP Port, but don’t know how soon I’ll be able to get one.
With the schematic WAN/SFP -> eth1 it should not be necessary to manipulate the eth1 mac with the modem’s mac but rather use the eth1 mac in the monitor app -> Device Mac = eth1 mac
Values actually look pretty similar to the ones my External Draytek Router/Modem uses, the Actual Downstream Rate shown in the overview at 79593 on the Allnet is actually quite a bit Lower than on the Draytek (98338)
While the dump was in progress the modem didn’t have DSL sync (it had sync before the start of the dump and resynced sucessfully once the dump was done). No idea if that is intentional behaviour or not.
Enabling the other ports doesn’t change anything. They are selectable at the top, but don’t show any additional data
After enabling the EBM Boot Option I tried selecting one of the Files from the “firmware” folder, but couldn’t. Even tried to rename one to *.b so I could select it, but trying to connect showed an error and then the Module connected with the Flashed Firmware, not with the selected one
Unfortunately got more or less the same response from my ISP (1&1) “You’re not using our supplied router, so you are on your own. All looking good on our end”
Yeah, that’s german services. 1und1 has to rent the last mile from Telekom. So they pass through the Telekom answer and add their subtle “rent our router” message.
@SteJe, accoding to the working external modem, your Connection is an ADSL2+ Line, not a VDSL2 one. Since the ALL4781 SFP is only specified for VDSL2 and not for ADSL, it will not work with your current DSL Line. That also corresponds to the PADO Timeouts (meaning no DSL Sync most probably) from the Log you posted earlier. So unless you can get a VDSL2 Line at your place (50MBit or higher should normally be VDSL2) the SFP won’t work unfortunately.
