Rep Power: 0  |  Need suggestion about Linksys WAG54G2 I have a UL 1350 BB plan and im planning to buy a new ADSL Wi-Fi router. I am planning to buy the Linksys WAG54G2. I would be connecting 2 desktops (Wired) and 1 laptop (Wireless). I would also need to be connected to the office VPN on the laptop. So please suggest if this a good router to buy. Its costing me about Rs 3500. Also if possible, please let me know if VPN can be connected if the router is configured in the Bridged Mode. Thanks, Albin |

Rep Power: 12  | Keep Bsnl supplied adsl modem as standby what is the make & model) with present settings. Try the Linksy's adsl2 modem+ wif router to connect desktop in lan mode/wifi mode. . VPN can wait. |

 If you bridge any modem you should be able to use VPN from the pc on which you have the connectoid to connect to the internet provided you don't have firewall issues on that system. In your case though, bridging would render it unusable for the multiple systems you have because you'd be able to connect only one at a time. You don't have to bridge it anyways. | |

What's the best way to setup the connection . PRONET BSNL Router PPPOE<-->WAG54G2<-->PC1&PC2[Wired] Laptop[Wireless] WAG54G2 PPPOE <-->PC1&PC2[Wired] Laptop[Wireless] I am thinking of having a similar setup at home. Could people also comment about WAG54G2 vs DLink DIR-300 maybe a topic for a separate thread ! Top Priority is Signal strength , and Ease of Setup . WAG54G2 - RS 3500 DLink DIR-300 - RS 2000 | |

Rep Power: 0 | The Pronet ADSL 2+ Router's model no: PN-ADSL101E. But as essbebe said, WAG54G2 already has modem and router, so it can used as standalone. I can just keep the Pronet one as backup. So i guess the best setup would be : WAG54G2 PPPOE <--> PC1&PC2[Wired] Laptop[Wireless] I should have the unit with me in a weeks time. I will test it once i lay my hands on it. |

Rep Power: 12 | Many thanks for the screen shot. Seems similar to Utstar WA3001-g1 Pronet does not have WIFI menu. 2.Please save present settings to say C:/My Documents/Pronet VPN working. ( Menu Tools /or Maintainence in modem ) 3. Also try this when connected to internet http://192.168.1.1/ppppassword.html type your VPN ID PW do you connect ? Feed back please. |
