Heh. Seriously?

Not only are you advertising your one-and-only wholesaler, but you are
asking for configuration help on devices "that are doing nothing" for
use as infrastructure gear.

This is what I heard you say:

- I'm an ISP
- I don't know what I'm doing
- pay me money to connect, I have a good upstream
- my hardware is used, but since I don't know how to work it, it's even
more useless than it normally would be

There are many, many best practises, many which will turn up in the
archives.

I'm sure you are interested in tra......

...forget it. I try too hard and get nowhere, and then have ISPs pop up
everywhere who just don't seem to care.

something else, I apologize.
