Thread: how to connect laptop in pppoe mode?

i have a vaio laptop, zxdsl531b modem and a n97 mobile. my modem was configured in bridging mode and my laptop was getting connected through wi-fi through this modem.

then i configured my modem to pppoe mode so that my mobile can also get connected through wi-fi and it happened but now my laptop doesnt get connected to net.

please guide so that my laptop and my cell both can get connected through wi-fi through the same modem

1) In your laptop what are the wireless network connections you are getting.?

2) Check whether the wireless is enabled in your modem, if enabled then in your laptop you will get the network with the name which is given in your modem that is SSID in you wireless settings.

3) Please specify what kind of error or problem you are facing in you laptop while connecting to wireless network.

are you able to access http://192.168.1.1 in your laptop?

i am getting connected to modem i.e. it gets detected on my laptop but am not able to connect to net in pppoe mode. where as in my cell i can get connected only in pppoe mode otherwise in bridging mode, it shows no gateway reply.

in pppoe mode, i guess it should connect to net automatically as soon as i switch on the modem but its not happening, its connecting to modem but not to net and when i am using my dialer to connect even that is not happening in pppoe mode

In PPPoE mode what LED lights are you getting...?

Please go through these links might help.

am not able to access 191.168.1.1 as well through my laptop whereas through my desktop i am able to access the same.

in bridging mode my laptop starts working in wifi but even then i cant access 192.168.1.1

1.Enable DHCP in your modem.
2.
In laptop
start network wireless LAn
properties
select tcp/ip
properties
select obtain an Ip address automatically.
( also in desk top ).

3. If still problem

post ipconfig /all data.
Start RUN type cmd Ok
new window
type ipconfig /all
Post data here.

4. When you are connected to Internet
check your ip. in laptop
http://checkip.dyndns.com:8245/
Type it in IE address bar.
Does the modem log in page appear ?

If what said by essbebe dont work just open the Properties of WiFi Adapter of your laptop and select TCP/IP Properties ...

Select Use following IP adress:

IP Adress: Give any value something starting from 192.168.1.2 TO 192.168.1.254

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1

if u r connecting ur lappy with a LAN cable in pppOE mode, the u need to enable NAT and DEFAULT ROUTE while setting ur modem to pppoe mode. else ur modem will connected to net bt it wont transfer the data to the laptop which is connected with lan cable.

oh its done...the problem was in internal explorer setting. just went to internet options/connections/lan settings and unchecked proxy server...

now i can connect my desktop, laptop and my cell on the same modem ;-)

thats great....!
