I have BSNL broadband connection and BSNL ADSL Modem UT-300R2U. It has got two ports ethernet port and USB and Ethernet port. I want to know that is there any facility or a dongle available which can be connected to USB port direct on modem and I can convert the signal to Wi-Fi as then I will have the facility of using my Iphone from anywhere in the home.

just simply purchase a Cheap VFM Wireless Router - such as TP LInk 740N (online --- 1050/-) and u just need to connect cables --- and it will start working out of the box --- and if u come across any HASSLE - community is here to sort it out.

Believe me --- GO for Wireless Router rather than Wireless Adapter - for the purpose of Sharing INTERNET

You can not use Wireless and Ethernet simultaneously, its not allowed on BSNL home planes. Which modem you are using, I could have told you details if I knew the modem company name.
Open firefox or other browser, go to 192.168.1.1 it will ask a ID and Password. Give the ID & pass.

id: admin and pass: admin
and then you will see the modem config page. Don't mess with it unless you know everything, just find the wireless option and check on it. thats it.:wink:

Friends,already purchased the Wi-Fi adapter.
My D-Link DSL-2520U ADSL2+ modem/router has an USB port(also a USB compatible port chord/wire provided).Can I connect the Wi-Fi adapter in this modem,and make it a hotspot access point within my house premises?
Please reply and help me friends.

not possible.any complex usb device need driver install to function & for this it needs either a full fledged OS like windows/linux or it needs a custom OS(like those 3g wifi routers which supports various 3g usb modems).that usb port is v1.1 supporting basic usb devices or pen drives only.

^^But whitestar,the device may reach me tomorrow or the next day(already shipped by ebay through DTDC).The manufacturers(Leoxsys) are also packaging an auto installation CD for drivers.

According to them:--->
Complies with wireless 802.11b/g/n standards with data rate up to 150Mbps
Standard: 802.11b/g/n, 802.3, 802.3u
USB 2.0 interface
Supports 20 MHz/40 MHz frequency width
Auto-detects and changes network transmission rate
Provides two work modes: Infrastructure and Ad-Hoc
Supports software AP and building your wireless LAN.
Green Power Saving : supports smart transmit power control and auto-idle state adjustment
Security: 64/128-bit WEP, WPA/WPA2 encryption methods, 802.1x authentication standards
System requirements: Windows 7/Vista/XP/2000, Mac OS X, Linux
Adapter size: 23 x 14 x 5 cm
Net weight: 30 g

So a bit hopeful my Friend.

Simply put, D-Link DSL-2520U + Mini Wireless Wi-Fi Nano USB Adapter Dongle WiFi Dongle(LEO-NANO150N), can this be a POSSIBLE or VIABLE connection & configuration for wi-fi HOTSPOT access point?
