Rep Power: 0 | justforkix, thanks so much for your guides. I still havent run/executed them yet, but I had a few preliminary questions... I have a BSNL broadband connection on a huawei modem. I tried running the linksys wizard to set up the connection, but it was unsuccessful in connecting to the internet post the config. I've gone through your guides and my questions are as follows: 1. you mention a username and password, but I doubt I have these, unless I have missed something somewhere. My BSNL connection is always on, IP: 192.168.1.41 gateway: 192.168.1.1 dns: 61.1.96.69 dns2: 61.1.96.71 ive never been asked for a password, and even when I want to connect my wired connection to any other computer apart from my desktop, I just have to plug the above ip's and dns' in and I am ready to use. Do I have a different sort of connection? or do I also have a username and password, and if so how do I dig it out? 2. while using the linksys wizard, it asked me for the type of connection, so I took staticIP and put in all of the above. Post this it was not able to connect, (since the IPs etc are local I guess) so technically if it isnt static, what type of connection is it? I will run your guides when I am home later, but would greatly appreciate a response to these questions, thanks! |

Rep Power: 0 | ok justforkix, I tried your guide out "multiple connections primer (updated)", but did not work :-( my PPPoE was already set up, so I set up DHCP server on my huawei... then set up the linksys to accept automatic configuration - DHCP, but to know avail in the end when I click status, there are a few marked differences from the screenshot you have put in... Firmware Version: v7.00.1 May.4, 2006 (Same) Current Time: Not Available (NOT SAME) Router Name: WRT54G (same) Host Name: <Blank> (same) Domain Name: <blank> (same) Login Type: Automatic Configuration - DHCP (same) IP Address: 192.168.1.3 (same) Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 (same) Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0 (NOT SAME) DNS1: <blank> (NOT SAME) DNS2: <blank> (same) DNS3: <blank) (same) MTU: 1500 (same) |

| Guardian Angel | From your note above, it is quite clear that Huawei and Linksys are not connected. Otherwise you should get the default gateway as 192.168.1.1 (or the same internal IP address as that of Huawei ADSL modem). What is the internal IP address of your Huawei ADSL modem router? And what the internal IP address of the Linksys router? Both need to be different. For example, if the IP addr of Huawei ADSL modem router is 192.168.1.1, then the Linksys router must be on a different sub-net, say 192.168.2.1. DHCP must be set to ON on both devices. |

| Guardian Angel | No problem, friend. Usually a small error/missout happens but that results in total failure. |
