Thread: help required

guys, i am a newbie here. i have a TAD100(teracom) which is a Adsl2+ modem. i am planning to purchase the d-link DIR 300 wireless router which supports DSL/cable modem. my question is whether i can use the DIR-300 router to connect to the internet?

YES. I think I answered in a different thread.
Anyway see the guides by @just4kix.

IF Your ISP is cable BB provider ADSL modem cannot be used.

@above

my ISP is Tata Indicom. and i downloaded the guide. how to find whether the TAD100 modem is in bridge mode?.

@essbebe

by accessing 192.168.1.1 through http, my TAD100 adsl2+modem settings are:
vpi/vci 0/32 and protocol is "bridge" and it is enabled.

when i connect to the internet, the dialpg box shows "Connecting through WAN Miniport,PPPOE". i assume it is in bridge mode and DHCP is enabled.

so i can buy the DIR-300 wireless router and follow the guide by just4kix??

Modem TAD100. ISP TataIndicom VPI/VCI 0 32.
( same as UT300r2U New BSNL)

You have to set In 'Always On" PPPoE mode
.Select PPPoE in wan page instead of 'Bridged'
Enter username and PW in wan page of modem
Enable DHCP.

When you buy any WIFI router, you will get an
Installation Cd, and manual may be.
Dlink/Linksys/Netgear/Buffalo etc usually have a
menu called Setup wizard.
You will be asked to give min details to
enable wifi.

Try that initially ,and then go for manual settings.
( the IP address of wifi router will be different )
REF: I am using same wifi router.

3. Try the LAN1 mode/ethernet to computer.

With dual antenna models, the range
may extend. As mentioned earlier
Height of the Antenna/Obstructions/Line of sight, location of the WIFI router and laptop etc count. Many variables and no firm distance can be given.

I am picking up an unsecured WIFI network , the distance of which may even exceed 50 feet.
My WGR614 tested for about 20/30 feet.

Be specific at which level "
Diploma holders/degree holders/>PG degree holders etc
Communications/computers/ network/ cellphones /teachers/professors/ /TV/radio/DTH/ software programmers/etc the subject is vast .
You may not get what you want in this forum. as many hours/days have to be spent to collect the information.
If willing to pay a fee I may try !!!
