Changing your VersaLink 327W gateway to Bridge Mode High Speed Internet...

connect router to pc with network cable and enter in your browser the ip adres

go to wirles part and select enable save settings and try to connect again with the wifi

Did you forget the user name and password for accessing the Web Utility of the router? If yes, you need to reset the router back to it's factory state. There's no other way but to reset it and then reconfigure the router. Set a new user name and password.

verizon dsl westell 7500 internet light goes off 2 to 3 times daily

lock on the botom of the router it might be locking for the WEP password on the label

This Westell 327W can only be use with a DSL internet connection since this is a DSL modem..

Hope that helps.........

if you are using the USB port of the modem, you should be able to see your modem while you are online, but if you are connect through ETHeRNET, you wont be able to see the modem on your device manager.

here is a USB port



and here is an ethernet port

If the 327 was never set up for wireless you need to connect to it with an Ethernet cable and plug that into your Mac and one of the RJ45 ports on the back of the 327. Type http://192.168.1.1 into your browser, this should take you to the Westell Home Page (Your Router). The default for wireless in this router is disable. There are tabs across the top on the page, select Configuration>Wireless>Basic. This opens the Wireless Operation Window. If Wireless is disabled, click arrow to enable. You can also enable and disable encryption in this same window and if you choose to use the basic WEP in the device, the WEP key is on the label on the bottom of the router. If all this is good your laptop should be able to detect the wireless connection, the default is the serial number on the bottom of the router so you will know which connection is yours. REMEMBER TO CLICK SAVE before exiting the window! Hope this helps.

If they are charging you for the use of the westel, just tell them you don't need it. I would keep using your other modem that works.

the default password for your westell 327 is username: admin and password: password, the admin admin combination is what usually isp providers such as verizon tells you to put in after configuring it for the first time. 192.168.1.1 is the url add for you to be able to access your westell 327. after accessing your modem you can find the WEP key below the modem, after enabling the security of your network the WEP kep is your default security password
