Hi Folks,

I want to replace my existing ADSL modem provided by MTNL with a wifi modem.

Could someone let me know the brand name and model number (and may be the price) of some wifi ADSL modem which I can use with MTNL (Delhi) ?


Thanks in Advance,
Chihu.

Just a moment. WRT54G is an excellent router and I have it myself but it does not have a built in modem. So it cannot replace your MTNL ADSL modem router. What you need is an ADSL modem + wireless router.

I do not have specific models but you cannot go wrong with Linksys or Netgear. Just make sure that there is a built in ADSL modem inside.

No one knows what wifi modem MTNL provides.
Went to a nearby comp shop and the vendor is asking Rs. 1950/- for a D-LINK router. Not sure whether it has a built in modem or not. The person was not sure and also it was to be made available only on order.

Hi,
Could you please tell me the price of Dlink DSL-2640T modem+router that you just purchased. Also please let me know how it worked for you.

In US I am getting it for around $80. Just thinking if it is better to boy from India itself or should I get it from here itself.

Hi,

I also had ADSL modem router for broadband. I purchased an additional netgear wireless router and made the connection wifi. If try to buy ADSL + wireless broadband router it will cost u around 5000+. Just wireless router will cost u only 1800 rs. As you have adsl router, I would advise to buy just the wireless router.

One more benefit is if in future u move to cable net ADSL broadband will not work. The wireless router can be attached to any type of broadband router.

Hope this helps.
