I want to turn my streamyx connection into wifi for iphone/android to access, what equipment do i need to get(there are so many terms for networking devices...)? My streamyx came with a zte zxdsl831 modem. Is there a wifi device where i can straight connect to telephone line? Or do i need to link it to the modem and then to the telephone line?

you may just get a low-cost wifi switch if you do not want to dump your zte zxdsl831

Dump that ZTE modem & get an all-in-one modem+router+wifi.
The ZTE modem is full of problems. |

Some suggestion for an all-in-one solution:
TP-Link TD-W8901G: (Wireless speed limited to 54Mb/s) Price around RM89 http://www.tp-link.com.my/products/details/?model=TD-W8901G TP-Link TD-W8951ND: (Wireless speed limited to 150Mb/s) Price around RM105 http://www.tp-link.com.my/products/details/?model=TD-W8951ND |

if you know how to do the setting, try to avoid all-in-one modem router, use existing modem as bridged mode, get a new wi-fi router to do dial-up and routing.

QUOTE(razuryza @ Apr 6 2013, 03:55 PM) why ? not all, but most of the entry level of all in one modem router or telco provided unit, normally when in high traffic, some of the router function may not work properly ie. DHCP down, DDNS not update or Wi-Fi become not stable, then you need to reboot it. correct me if i'm wrong.. |

I always prefer ADSL modem + another ROUTER that working separately i can reboot reconnect within seconds without the need of adsl resync  |

agree with john n nobody..
a year ago... i used streamyx... just connect my modem (ztexxx) to wifi router (belkin).. and vice versa..!  if your house is double storey.. beware of the coverage.. buy a higher 'N' for better coverage.. sample pic : http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y294/game.../Belkin/001.jpg but now.. i used P1..  |
