Subscribe to a new static broadband. If I plug the connection from ISP directly to my notebook with the settings below, internet works well.
IP x.x.x.220
255.255.255.248
GW x.x.x.217
Did a speedtest and got the ip of x.x.x.220.
Now setting up an interface in Sophos 115.
IP x.x.x.220/29
GW x.x.x.217
And i get error in LINK and State is up. No internet connection at all. Since its a 29 netmask, i change the GW to x.x.x.219 and i get internet connection. Did a speedtest and the IP came out to be the GW IP ( x.x.x.219 ) and i suppose my public ip should be x.x.x.220 ?
I reverted the settings back to what provided by ISP. Still cant get the internet to work. The link is always error. With the same settings, it works directly on my notebook.
Am i missing anything ( beside MASQ ) as the main connection is still down.
