Thread: Configuring Linksys WRT160N for Sify Broadband

Hello,
I just got my Sify BB Connection and wanna share it with two of my desktops (Connected Wired) and one Laptop (Wireless).
So, how to configure Linksys WRT160N to share the internet and how can I configure it to Always ON?

Thanks in Advance

Hope you have the SIFY supplied modem.
( or if no modem is supplied RJ45 goes direct )
Mention model make and number.
If it is a cable modem doubt WIFI router will work
Ensure your Internet connection works >

Remove the Rj45 from computer end and connect to Linksys WAN port or Internet port.
connect another RJ45 to desktop.
Please try the "runcd first" option.

the user manual, provided on the installation CD was easy to read. There was little network jargon and where it was used there were clear, plain-English, explanations provided. Wireless protection options are labelled as best, good and none (WPA, WPA and none respectively) and once configuration is complete the settings are saved as a text file that can be printed out for later reference.

Out of the box, all the ports on the WRT160N were covered with a "Run CD first" sticker. We did that and, rather than the usual web browser installation process, Linksys provides a great tool called the Linksys EasyLink Advisor, or LELA. LELA is a graphical application that gives you a picture of all the devices connected to your network. This sort of software has typically been in the domain of professional network managers. However, if you've become the accidental manager of a small network at home or in the office then LELA is a Godsend. It's currently Windows only but we're told that a Mac version will be coming later this year.
