    I've used these steps to setup my Ubee in bridge mode, the box reboots but it comes back up and its still in router mode and when I look at the page its back to router mode.

    Routerhas 1.0.16 firmware version, might this be the issue?

    I asked UPC to revert me to ipv4 only and now I do not have dslite enabled, but still same issue.

    I have same issue. On IPv4 but the router will not remain in bridge mode.

    My internet speed is gone from over 200mb to barely 1mb since this update. Anyone experiencing similar issues?

    Downstream Power levels look high (optimal is 0 with +/- 10 in spec and snr is on the low side (ideally around 40 but above 35) and the upstream is a bit high (low mid 40's is best), prob wouldn't take much to cause issues, maybe in the evenings when traffic is higher. Is the line old, do you have any splitters between the external tap and the router?


    Looks like my results are OK - see below with 1 splitter & longer cable.
    When connected directly (no splitter), the DOWNSTREAM was between 7.49-8.38dBmV (across 8 channels)
    UPSTREAM: between 36.50-38 dBmV (across 4 channels).

    Questions:
    1. How come my DOWNSTREAM results with 1 splitter & longer cable are better than without a splitter & shorter cable? (based on the above quote)
    2. Regarding UPSTREAM, why the "low/mid 40s is the best"? I.e. without the splitter I get just below 40, which I consider as a better result (less signal loss).
    3. Not sure why I can't see SNR in my router (Ubee EVW3226)?
    Hope there is a simple explanation :)
    Thanks

    You are on DSlite. You need to contact UPC and get your own IPv4

    Hi all,

    there are several questions regarding port forwarding the uBee router in this thread, and the long and short of it is 2 facts: 1) You should have UPC "relegate" you to IPv4 to get the port forwarding segment of the admin interface, and 2) The UPC-branded firmware is so full of bugs it could pass for a terrarium. Reading through the client side code, first I noticed that you cannot set a port forwarding rule to an IP address that is outside of the DHCP scope(!!!!!), claiming that the target address is outside of the current subnet. Next I noticed that you cannot port forward to the same port on separate nodes using separate public ports(!!!!!!), claiming that there is a port overlap. I finally decided to rewrite the error checking code for the router. I will not instruct anyone on how to alter the firmware of the router, but you can mimic the behavior by these steps:

    1) Navigate to the Port Forwarding page of the uBee router using a modern browser.
    2) Press F12 on your keyboard to activate the Developer Tools.
    3) Go the the Console in the Developer Tools.
    4) Paste the following code (all in-between the asteriks'es) and press enter:
    ************************************************
    tempFunc = function()
    {
    var i;
    var PublicPortRange;
    var TargetPortRange;

    var gStartIP = "192.168.0.50";
    var gEndIP = "192.168.0.249";

    return true;
    }
    myframe.window.eval("AddForwardingList = " + tempFunc.toString());
    tempFunc = undefined;
    ************************************************

    Two things to note: 1) THIS DISABLES ALL ERROR CHECKING of the port forwarding rule creation. This means you can conceivably set up conflicting rules. Make sure you know what you are doing as I take zero responsibility for this as well as my 14 illegitimate children. 2) Unless you want to write a browser extension to take care of it for you, you have to paste this code EVERY TIME you want to make a change to the port forwarding rules. Yes, even when deleting.

    Hope this helps.

    Just noticed something strange - in the bottom of my code above the following line

    myframe.window.eval("AddForwardingList+ tempFunc.toString());

    should read

    myframe.window.eval("AddForwardingList = " + tempFunc.toString());


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10 Mediator


    Ah, I give up. Boards seems to truncate and reformat. Posted the code at paste dot ofcode dot org slash aJqeA7LeD4xdSQhUdU7GSD if anyone needs it.

    @Mediator link to source code dont work :(
    could you upload again somewhere ? big thanks

    "The resource could not be found.

    i have also few. question:
    - port forwarding working with this used code ? (and only if is disable DSlite ? )
    - is working possibility switch to Bridge mode ? or we can do this by callling to UPC and ask to switch remotly ?
    (my SW Version EVW3226_1.0.16, HW Version 1.23)
    - is possibile to switch OFF Horizon Wi-Free and D4lite, from web ?

    Regarding port forwarding and switching Off Wi-Free and D4lite, just contact UPC here on boards or through contact form on their website to revert your account to IPv4 (DSlite will be disabled and you will be able to access port forwarding section in the "Advanced" tab in Ubee web interface) and turn off Horizon from your account.

    Also, they will be unlikely to set up Bridge mode on your Router (they say "Sorry, it is not supported") and procedure on this thread does not seem to work with 1.0.16 firwmare.

    Here's my experience with this modem:

    You need to call UPC to switch to IPV4, this will allow the port-forwarding and bridge mode functionality to work as stated.
    You may still need to access the hidden URLs for either of these features if it doesn't show up once you are moved back to IPV4 (I recall it rebooting and some menu options showing back up).

    Bridge mode works fine for me since I've done this, I'm using an old (tomato based) ASUS RT-N66U router plugged directly into one of the ports while its in bridge mode and it holds the public IP address and does my WiFI, port forwards etc.

    Hiya,

    yeah, I just verified myself - the link is dead. I developed this on a system I won't have access to till tomorrow, I'll have a look for the project then. Meanwhile, if you can read Javascript handily enough you can "fix" the the code I posted in this thread with relative ease.

    Cheers,

    I am trying to setup port forwarding so I can view a server I have when I am at work. I have configured the forwarding like this, but it does not work. Is there something else I need to change?

    hi guys just looking for a bit of help hear i am a upc customer and not happen with wifi speeds as im sure many ar they same anyways im looking for a solution i have th 240mb package and i get that speed true wired connection but i have relocated my laptop up to my room so am using wireless anyways i had being testing speeds with this new alfa network adapter i purchased AWUS036NHR-V2

    anyways the adapter says 150mb speeds but i am only recieveing 30mb to 48 mbs on a good day even beside the upc modem that us what the upc speed test shows but yet the alfa suit on my laptop will always be over 50mb max 72mb ? im just woundering is this problem down to the upc modem or the adapter ? because i see you guys say that modem is muck what should i do any help would be really appreciated thanks in advance


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 124 ✭✭tnethacker


    Just came here for the same problem, since yesterday the wifi speeds dropped below 0.1 Mb. When I'm using Rj45, there is no problem.

    For anyone interested in having bridging mode reinstated on Ubee modems, you might take some time to post on the Virgin Media thread concerning this issue.

    Folks, my apologies for a lack of knowledge. I've gotten myself an Android box, plugged it in via Gigabit cable, enabled Ethernet connection within the box but the speeds I'm obtaining are woeful. About a 15ms ping and 45 Mbps. Amber/green network lights are enabled on the Android box but only amber on the modem.

    I presume I'm not getting full capability from the modem? I wasn't sure where to look specifically within this thread if someone can point me in the right general direction.

    Many thanks.

    You're getting 100Mpbs half duplex. See if you can set the Android box to 100Mbps full duplex.

    Many thanks for that. Having briefly gone into its custom settings it doesn't appear to give you a whole lot in the way of options and I don't recall the Android OS having much in the way of advanced networking features...... unless I'm missing something obvious? Which is pretty possible for me!

    It's probably likely that there isn't the option to do that on android devices. Layer 2 issues like this are really unusual and very bad form from Ubee. You could either replace it for another type of modem from Virgin or use a 5 port gig switch in front of the Android box.

    So I've read most of this thread and it seems that you guys might have the answer for me...
    UPC recently replaced my netgear wireless router and scientific Atlanta cable modem with one of these as I couldn't connect a Chromecast.
    Lo and behold, I still can't connect.
    Any ideas?

    I've googled extensively and still can't figure it out. It can't be that difficult can it?
    Thanks in advance.

    VM confirmed me on twitter that even if you can see a port forwarding in modem GUI
    it is not supported.

    I was able to change a JavaScript to do what I want but I think this is not a customer friendly approach.

    I replaced modem from TC7200 as this old one was dropping outgoing connections on firewall and I was able to prove that using SYSLOG, in Ubee syslog doesn't work at all
    and of course this option is not supported as well.

    In addition to that you HAVE to setup DNS to be directed to the modem
    and you can't use your own one, until you know JavaScript and you can "hack" it a little bit.

    Again - option to change DNS is in modem GUI but changing DNS is not supported.

    Security Warning !!!
    By default admin page is open to WAN connections and not working SYSLOG is pointed to VM server.

    regards,
    Marcin

    Necro. Anyone know if VMI are still shipping Ubees? Need to organize a deconsolidation of horizon services but not currently confident they'll send a COMPAL.
