I like to say thanks but it did not work for me with my talk talk Smart AX MT882.

The alternate method works. I set PPPoE on the BSNL model, turned on DHCP there, and disabled DHCP in WRT54G. It all works now. Except ..

I had set 192.168.2.1 as the 'Local IP Address' for the WRT54G, but am not able to access that URL any more. How can I access the WRT54G admin page?

TIA,
Prakash

It's wonderful.

set the linksys ip to say 192.168.1.100 .. but remember it should be outside the router dhcp range.. say bsnl router dhcp range is 192.168.1.3 - 192.168.1.10 .. you can have your linksys ip from anywhere between 192.168.1.11 - 192.168.1.254..but not between 192.168.1.3 - 192.168.1.10

There is no need to disable DHCP in any router. Because DHCP is disabled you are no more able to access the WRT54G.

Hi I am new to the forum. couple of days back I was suffering. I had a BSNL modem mentioned and Lynksys router and did not know how to connect them. Struggled for a few days. My agony was only increased by BSNL's pathetic customer service. They almost refused to help set up ( they said ' bring the laptop to us'. Almost as if that would solve the problem).

Thanks to you I just followed this help guide and set it up succesfully.

I do not how to thank you. It is a wonderful thing to take pains to puttogether. Why can't the BSNL customer service dept do such things?

Regards

Krish

You are most welcome.

I understand your frustration with BSNL. To be fair to BSNL, they are not oblidged to help with a device that is not supplied/supported by them.

This is where open community checks in and there are forums such as ours to help. I sincerely thank you for your kind words of appreciation but I am a small fry. I can only that I can help with the equipment that I own/have. There are many others in this forum who do their own bits and pieces to help out.

Thanks Just4kix. Thanks a bunch for the document and taking time to answer queries. The doc really helped.

I'm hoping I can find more answers here. I sent a separate post regarding the same. After configuring the WRT54G router with MT882 modem, the internet speed dropped big time. About 140Kbps. Any suggestions? Is this common or did I just end up with a defective router?
