Hello to everybody,

My ISP has change the TTL values so I changed the dreambox TTL values and I couldn't save the file

I have no idea why you want to do what you are attempting to, but you can easily modify the file easily using telnet.

Copy and paste this command into a telnet terminal, then hit enter.

echo "64" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_default_ttl

Replace the 64 with whatever value you like.

Thank you for help

The problem is that I couldn't save the value. the default value is 64 and I don't know where to edit or make configuration. With default value 64 it's not receiving packets.
Can you tell me how to save the file from telnet or to change another file configuration.

How to change the value in that file has already been explained. Whether it does what you need or not is another question.

Since reading your 1st post I've read how ISP's in your part of the world restrict internet access to one machine at a time by restricting TTL on packet hops. It would have helped if you had explained this to begin with. I assume this is the case.

Your looking at it the wrong way around with this file. AFAIK Changing the value here will only affect outbound packets leaving your DM500, if it affects anything at all. What you really need to do is figure out a way of increasing the TTL on inbound packets.

Your best bet is looking into a router that can run Linux and IP Tables. IP tables can increase the TTL on inbound packets.

Again thanks. It seems the best way is to buy a router probably Linksys WR54G, i read this router works with Linux and Ip tables.

Can you tell me is there any script or conf file where I can change values?
