DSL Wireless Network
Posted: Fri Apr 20, 2007 12:47 pm
I just switched from cable to DSL (faster speed and $15 cheaper), I've never used DSL so I'm not used to setting up a DSL wireless network.
When using cable, I had several computers hooked up to a wireless network using a Linksys WRT54GL router. Worked fine, so router and network cards are all configured.
What I want to do hook up the DSL modem to the WAN port of the router, and then have each computer access the router wirelessly. Network cards and software are already preinstalled and verified to work.
I have the user name and password for the DSL and I can get a single computer to work with a network cable plugged directly into the modem.
I don't know what I need to configure on the router and on Windows XP to be able to dial to the router, to the DSL modem to access the internet.
