Hi,
I bought this TP link TD W8968 but I can't set up with my laptop. I bought it to make my floor wifi but it isn't happening.
I have this local cable broadband connection which directly link with my laptop through lan, there is no modem but this product manual is showing to link it through adsl then modem and i don't know what else? Should i change it? Plz help me urgently. Because if i want to change it i should make it sooner. Thank u.

1)So you are not using Modem and using Direct connection to PC? ISP giving u Net via CAT5/6 Cable or are they Running Cable[like TV cable] to Box and from there via Ethernet Cable ?

2) Open cmd > type IPconfig /all post result

3) tracert 8.8.8.8

the connector software is in macromedia/flash, how to get values from there?

Test the connection to your DSL service provider
Test xDSL Synchronization: FAIL Help
Test ATM OAM F5 segment ping: DISABLED Help

You are doing it wrong all along buddy and DSL sync is not relevant here as it is for the DSL broadband like BSNL and Airtel that works through telephone lines.

Anyway what you need is to located the eth wan when in wireless router mode. There you need to assign the static ip details as below-

Ip address - 172.17.43.94
Subnet mask - 255.255.255.192
Gateway ip - 172.17.43.65
Then locate Dns tab and put Google dns.

Suggesting the static ip because it has been consistent in your posts so far. Also do ensure your wifi adapter is set to automatically receive configuration and doesn't have any ip pre-configured.

If all this doesn't work then probably your ISP has MAC address lock. Look for MAC address cloning function in your router and put the laptop mac address (of Ethernet adapter).

The mac Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-E0-13-00-F1-21 when i'm connected through cable directly with my laptop.
The Mac address : 00-13-02-C4-DD-94 when i'm connecting with the router. how to fix this?

- - - Updated - - -

when i'm doin the mac clone they are not taking any outside mac address. they are just making copy of the router mac address which is 00-13-02-C4-DD-94 but i guess the isp provide has the old mac address 00-E0-13-00-F1-21. which is not getting replaced by the cloning of the new mac address. and thats why the mismatch is happening. i called my service provider but they refused to co-operate.
