  1. I'm looking for a good "starter clam" to try my hand with. It doesn't need to be particularly pretty, but I'm looking for healthy and not giant. Thanks!
  2. purples are different, special creatures.
  3. Broken record here, purple firefish.
  4. anytime you wanna come set mine up properly, i will give you a hearty handshake, smile and pat on the back for your troubles.
  5. This indicates your "Modem" is setup as a network gateway, i.e. your routes are pointing to it as its default gateway. If you have your own router, and still have the 2wire setup, you can have ATT set the gateway interface to router mode, where it will only pass traffic to the next hop. I.e. it will hand the public IP off to your personal router. A work-around for this issue is to setup your own router, place it in the DMZ. Assign the ip of the router 1 numeric value higher than the gateway. (eg 192.168.1.1 is the 2wire, set your WRT to 192.168.1.2 with a default gateway of 192.168.1.1). You'll need to be sure to shut off the firewall on either the 2wire or on the WRT, you shouldn't run both SPI firewalls simultaneously. Also, dhcp on the 2Wire will need to be turned off, and DHCP on the WRT enabled. You'll need to add DHCP exclusions (I generally exclude 192.168.1.1 through .25, reserving the range for static IP devices). The most important step here, is to ensure the DHCP scope has 192.168.1.2 as its default gateway, otherwise it'll talk directly to the 2wire device. At this point,you have two choices, you can set a dhcp reservation for the apex, so that it has the same internal IP address all the time, without having to manually configure the IP. Or you can leave it in dynamic mode. Since you'll be using the WRT for a gateway, it will handle its own local dns registration and resolution. DynDNS can be used in the WRT at this point, as now it has the public IP. I spent *days* screwing around with using the RG in the aforementioned method, and I went into a deep/dark depression. Maybe something there was something screwy with my hardware/setup (or me mentally, which is most likely) but I gave up and just use my RG to serve as the wireless AP. You go through a HUGE workload just to be able to offload your DDNS assignments to your router. It's not worth it unless you need more from your router than i did (e.g. 802.11n or any of the other services DD-WRT provides).
  6. DD-WRT will, but it's a real b*tch to get the uverse RG to just act like a modem and let another router do the dirty work. I just gave up and serve everything through my RG. You can't use the DD-WRT wireless AP to send the DDNS info because it never "sees" the IP that the outside world does.
  7. I'll just head over to /b/ and point the LOIC at derrick's apex in retaliation
  8. its activated there as well. PM me and tell me how pretty i am so I can see if it worked.
  9. Yeah, I was thinking that obscurity is probably the key to apex safety. However, it's easy enough to close the UDP if it doesnt affect the apex, allegedly.
  10. taptalk is working fine, but I want to eliminate my email notifications (jesus I have a ton of ARC message emails) and get pushed notifications to my phone instead. It's activated on my ARC prefs, and in tapatalk prefs, so I was curious. Maybe it's something that needs enabling on the server end?
  11. That should be sufficient. I have 24 3w CREEs in a BC29 and I'm doing fine with a pretty good collection of SPS. Mine is mounted about an inch off of the water surface.
  12. When you tell your wife you want to plumb in that 20 across the room, say "I LOVE YOU BUT I'M NO ANGLERFISH."
  13. in the case of DoS, it's more about just hitting it with enough traffic to shut it down. Either way, I'll be closing up my UDP, but I swear to god jack if this screws up my apex, IM COMING FOR YOU.
  14. do any other tapatalk users have successful use of push notifications on your iOS device?
  15. Everyone has a price rob. Find that price and make it happen, for the good of the land.
  16. Tee off of your return pump and add overflows to the twenty. Easy. As. Pie.
  17. Floats to a breakout will work just fine. Some people prefer the redundancy of offloading certain things to other devices as a safety backup (ie temperature controls on heater/chiller or a dedicated ATO). However, going directly to the Apex will give you more control and flexibility than if you use a separate ATO.
