the second laptop is detecting the router and is successfully connected to it but then what i am unable to surf the net on that.

When you have configured the modem/router in always on mode (PPPoE), why are you trying to dial again? The modem/router is already doing that - and it has already done that. Naturally you will get a "phone busy" signal if you try to dial again. Imagine you have parallel telephones at home. If there is a phone conversation going on one phone, can you use the other parellel phone to dial again?

You must do the following:

If you have only one modem/router (wired)
a) Configure your (ADSL) router/modem in PPPoE mode.
b) If it is Type I (1 USB + 1 LAN), connect one machine to USB (install drivers first) and one to LAN.
c) Get rid of any dialers on the PC/laptop. They are not required.

If you have one modem/router (wired) with another router (wired or wireless) or a network switch/hub
a) Configure your main (ADSL) router/modem in PPPoE mode.
b) Connect your wired/wireless router in Automatic DHCP mode. Those who have a network switch, do the same.
c) Connect your PC or laptop to LAN ports 1~4 (wired connections) or connect them wirelessly.
d) Get rid of any dialers on the PC/laptop. They are not required.

To take pictures of screen shots, do this:

a) Open the application whose screen shot is desired
b) While this window is modal (title bar should be blue coloured; not grey), press one of the following:
- Alt+Printscreen: to capture the modal window only
- Pritscreen: to capture the entire desktop
The screen shot is now captured to clipboard
c) Open MS-Paint.
d) Use the paste function to paste the screenshot
e) Save the picture (preferably in JPEG format to reduce size)

@player, from another post I read, I think that you have a Type IV modem. Am I correct?

If that is the case, then do the following:

a) Configure your (Type IV) router/modem in PPPoE mode.
b) Connect your machines to LAN ports 1~4 (wired connections) or wirelessly.
c) Get rid of any dialers on the PC/laptop. They are not required.

have u tried using a bridge connection. it is easier to do so. u have to make a connection dialer to dial to the internet.

add a new wan connection in ur router configuration using vpi/vci as 0/35. and taking LLC encapsulation and dont make any further changes to ur configuration. after u have finished making the wan connection. reboot the router. this is the main step to do.

bridge mode can not be used to connect multiple devices simultaneously independant of each other.in bridge mode one machine(laptop/desktop) must act as a kind of gateway to which other machines connect.if that machine is off none of the remaining machines can connect.
