1. Mention modem - model and make

2. Try connecting your desktop using a RJ 45 cable and check.

3. Start > Run > cmd > ipconfig/all for both machines.

4. Enable DHCP in modem.

5. In the TCP/IP properties of connection in both machines, set " Obtain IP address automatically.

MAKE - BSNL TYPE 2
MODEM Model - AR800V v3.0

I tried changing the TCP/IP settings on the systems to automatically select IP then I am not getting connected to the internet.Once I give 192.168.1.2 the internet gets started.

No issues connecting with RJ45 cable.

Can u please elaborate on DHCP advanced settings.
