Hi,
I earlier had Tikona wireless connection,wherein i had a receiver on my terrace and from that receiver i had given input to my router D-link AC750 Dir 803 wifi router.
Now i subscribed to new local internet, the guy has given me a cable whose end point is an rj-45 jack.
The jack has only 4 pins wired out of 8 pins,i.e 1-2-3-6 with cables (orange-white)-(orange)-(green-white)-(green).
Rest of the slots in rj45 are kept unused and these are only the pair of cable going in it.
This cable when i insert into my motherboard ethernet port, I can connect to internet using broadband connection terminal, wherein i have to give my username and password.
Now my question is how can i connect this cable to my wifi router, I tried it but there is no internet connection glow lights on it. On enquiring with local ISP he told me to get DSL modem plus router. I got my friends Netgear DGN1000. Now Netgear has a rj11 connection at back, so i went ahead bought a rj11 jack and inserted (orange-white)-(orange)-(green-white)-(green) cables in order crimped it and tried connecting to the router but there is no response for router.
Am i going wrong somewhere here? Is there a specific way of connecting cable in rj11 jack? Also why i cannot use my Dlink router with rj45 pin whereas the same works on my desktop?
Regards,
