Re: TP LINK ADSL Router can be used to configure cable broadband?

run ipconfig /all in command prompt window & post result here(remove the tunnel adapter entries).

here pls find the snapshotipconfig.jpg


Cable broadband is rj 45 and I have connected it to rj45 port, from another port I have connected router to pc
First of all, in this configuration I m unable to login to 192.168.1.1
Secondly, after connecting to Internet, WiFi is enabled but I am unable to connect, it always stops at obtaining ip address.
Even if I manage to connect, It shows no Internet.
Finally, after reading a lot, I have disabled dhcp, NAT, now wifi connects and disconnects continuously

Tp link w8961nd for cable broadband/ Triple play (Gurgaon)

Hi guys,
I own a tp link w8961nd that has 4 rj45 Lan ports and rj11 1adsl2+ port.
My triple play operator says I cannot use my router for cable braodband
After reading from Internet, here nd there I connected rj 45 to one of the Lan ports and other port to my pc and got it to connect to Internet. But wen I try to connect my android phone to wifi of the router, it stops at "obtaining ip address". After again reading here and there, I disabled Dhcp, NAT,. NOW it keeps on connecting and disconnecting.
Now I have following queries:
1. Does w8961nd has a Wan port? If yes, which one? If no, can I convert Lan port to Wan port?
2. How can I use wifi with cable broadband?
3. Can I use w8961nd with cable broadband, or have to buy new router??

Thank u in advance

Your screenshot shows only ethernet adapter,where is wifi adapter.Also what type of cable broadband connection you have.e.g.it seems you have static ip type connection in which details like ip address,subnet mask,default gateway & dns server address details are provided by your cable broadband provider.In that case why the default gateway is shown as 0.0.0.0 for Triple Play PPP adapter.Also do you use some king of web page to login or you use some type of software to make the connection.

First of all post these results for a system in which net is working when connected to Triple Play cable braodband connection.Assuming the details like ip address,gateway etc are provided by Triple Play,you need to manually enter these values in W8961 connection settings after selecting connection type as static IP(if using web page to login) or pppoa/pppoe--static pppoe(if using software to connect) & use mac spoofing to set W8961 mac address same as mac address of the system used to connect to Triple Play.After that you need to enable DHCP in W8961.

[MENTION=323932]gurgaon.anil[/MENTION], are these screenshots complete because they look completely different from a usual ipconfig command result.The ones you posted earlier are missing details like default gateway,auto configuration,dhcp etc.Also you didn't answered my question about whether you use some web page to login to connect or use some software to connect to Triple Play network for net access.

W8961ND doesn't have a WAN port.Using a lan port to connect cable broadband & using another lan port to connect to pc makes W8961 act simply as a switch.You can not change lan port to wan port.Wifi is not working because switch does not provide ip address to connected devices,you have to manually enter the ip address.You are saying cable broadband ip is dynamic but I am not sure.In any case something is definitely wrong with your system as default gateway can not really be 0.0.0.0.Some online research indicates this 0 gateway is either due to IPv6 being enabled or Bonjour services of Adobe CS3.

see the details under PPP adapter Triple Play,it clearly shows DHCP enabled No.This entry can not show up in ipconfig results without someone making a dialup connection entry by the name of Triple play on your pc.In windows network & sharing center click on change adapter settings on left side.Look for a network adapter named Triple Play & then right click on it & select properties.Under networking tab select internet protocol v4 & again click on properties tab.There you should see if ip address is obtained automatically or if it has been assigned some value.

If that's a dialup connection then it must have a username & password too.Can you see it under its properties?
i do have the user name and password too

I think it is an issue with your setup/system.I also think this now is not worth the time spent to make it work.Get a simple tplink router like WR841N for ~1100 & keep 8961N for some future phone line net connection.
