[ale] [OT] make dsl modem visible?

[Louis Zamora]

While you may have a public ip address associated with your dsl modem,
you should be able to hit it with 192.168.1.254. I didn't get what you
were trying to accomplish but recommend untangle for most everything
you'd want to manipulate in routing terms. Is there something you are
trying to do that 192.168.1.254 won't let you?
