Previously with 1 notebook at home, I just need adsl modem plug into my notebook.

But with the new PC , I need to share the internet connection using a wireless router .

After searching, my choice come to linksys wrt54gh, due to its price .

a. The connection

adsl cable – adsl modem – wireless router — pc / notebook

b. with dlink 526b , I use it as a bridge . and put the ppoe dial in my router.

c. Step by step how to :

1. open adsl modem web setting , by default is http://192.168.1.1 , user and pass : admin / admin (default)

2. change wan connection setting in adsl modem , from ppoe to bridge mode :

in the wan connection, edit the existing setting .

click next. then choose bridge instead of ppoe.

3. save  . It’s done for setting in adsl modem

4. Unplug the utp cable from pc to adsl , and plug it into the router

5. open the router web admin , by default is http://192.168.1.1/  user : <blank > / admin

6. change the router IP so it has different segment with adsl modem.  In this case , I use 192.168.0.1

7.  enable dhcp in router

8. In the internet connection, choose PPoE , and fill the user and pass provide by your internet provider (I use speedy ) .

9 .  Save settings. wait until it restart

10.  restart PC (or just repair the lan connection)

11. connect adsl modem with the router,  from the router , port internet , connect to adsl modem utp port

12. done.

good luck

It’s because I need to access internet when I’m in my friend’s house. But he only have 1 internet connection using telkom speedy adsl modem tp link td-8817.

So I brought my wireless router (linksys wrt54GH) and setup there.

I’ll post later how to setup an adsl modem dlink with this wireless router.

These are the steps :

a. the structure will be like this :

adsl cable — adsl modem — wireless router (internet port) — pc

b. I assume the IP of the adsl modem is 192.168.1.1

c. By default , the IP of the router is 192.168.1.1 .

So first unplug the utp cable from pc to adsl modem , and connect it from pc to router (not the internet port).

d.  open http://192.168.1.1

e.  By default  , user password for the router is : <blank> / admin.

f. Make the IP of the wireless router to different segment, by changing the router IP in basic setup.

In this case, I use 192.168.0.1

g. Why different segment ? Because the adsl modem itself has the dhcp service. And in 1 segment , there can not be 2 DHCP server running , it can cause conflict.

h. Then in the internet connection type , choose ‘Automatic configuration – DHCP’ .

f.  Save settings. will need couple time to restart the router.

g. After that , connect the adsl modem with router .  put the utp in the internet port of the router , and connect it to adsl modem.

h. done . No settings changed in the adsl modem needed.

j. restart the modem and pc if needed.
