Need help with setting up Wifi for alliance broadband

avikb

Right off the assembly line
I got alliance from a local service provider few days back, before that i had BSNL connection.

My local provider installed this device on the roof Ubiquiti Networks - airGrid® , connection is good but i am trying to get my TP-Link router to work with this. It was easy for setting up BSNL connection, but it does not work with Alliance.

Unlike BSNL connection i have to login here(*10.254.254.x/0/up/) with username and password.

Can anyone provide a bit more detail on how to get it working? I was only provided with username and password.
A lots of forum post suggests using Static IP, but i don't have any clue what should i put there?

Of course you need to get the relevant info from Alliance Broadband.
Regarding images visit the last post by [MENTION=126812]whitestar_999[/MENTION],where he has shown clearly which fields of information to be changed.
In fact you could seek help from him as he is an expert in the field of Networking.

Seems like a dynamic ip configuration based on ipconfig result of direct connection.Simply select the wan connection type as dynamic ip & then use mac cloning feature to set tplink router mac address same as that of pc from which direct connection to alliance was made.After this just login from any device connected to tplink.

Note that laptop has 2 mac address,one for lan/ethernet & one for wifi,use the mac address of lan/ethernet assuming direct connection to Alliance was done using a lan wire.

i got all the info from alliance but after fiddling few hours i discovered i don't need to provide any info at all. I use automatic Configuration (DHCP Server) for the connection type setting. and it worked.

have no clue what is going on, but got it working.

When DHCP is enabled that means all the details like ip etc are provided by the network & nothing needs to be entered manually.Some cable providers give static ip address & other details in which case these details need to be entered manually.

Which is really weird. After reading A LOT of thread regarding connecting router with alliance, everyone suggests using Static IP.
But in my case i couldn't connect to internet using static IP.
