i hav a DSL, connection
i have pretty much this identical problem, my modem is a siemens 4200 my router is a d-link DIR-300 and i have broadband internet via DSL.
i cannot conet my modem though the ethernet cable for some reason it has to go through USB or else it wont register and i think this may be part of the problem. please help
I have bought a D-Link wireless G Router( DIR-300) and I cant figure how to connect it to my modem( Siemens Speedstream 4200). I am trying to set up a wireless home network. The cd that came with the router wont work in my pc. On the modem there is only 1 spare port which is a blue USB. The router came with a blue ethernet cable. I am connected with Optus ADSL through the phoneline. Can anyone help?
Same problem, Im sure it has something to do with the config of the Speedstream modem.
I have the same problem
I have just brought a DIR-300 and cannot get it to connect to the net, I have set up the DIR-300 and even can ping it from the PC, but the ping does not reach the modem( speedstream 4200).
I have read some other pages and they say that the DIR-300 has to be set up as a bridge with the modem but none so far i have found works.
I believe it might be something to do with the PPPOE ( or something like that), i have even tried the DCHP setting, but still to no avail. Again this is OPTUS ADSL2+ i think( could be mistaken though).
Its getting close to the stage where the Wirless router is going to be taken back, Easy set up my Arse!!
