1) turn off firewalls and antivirus you may have
2) upgrade firmware

aiyo.. just bought it few days ago, need to upgrade firmware ?

ok, another question, currently I have the following devices:

1. Linksys ADSL2 Modem (AM300-Annex A)
2. Netgear Wireless Router (MR814 V2)

i think we can have a few combination of setting here. not sure which one is the best, please give input and how I can set up those structure.

currently, i have it setup like below:

1. Linksys ADSL Modem:
Encapsulation: PPPoE mode
DHCP:On
DSL Modulation : Auto
IP : 192.168.1.1

2. Netgear wireless router
- no login required
- wireless On
- DHCP: Off
- IP : 192.168.1.100

Connection:
From Modem ethernet --> Wireless Router LAN port 1
PC (Fixed IP) --> Lan port 2
Other wireless device (Auto IP) --> Wireless AP

Note: As you can see, I never use the WAN port in the Wireless router, because I dont want to get 2 IP in my LAN setup.

Setting B:
1. Linksys ADSL Modem:
Encapsulation: Bridge Mode only
DHCP:Off
DSL Modulation : Auto
IP : 192.168.1.1

2. Netgear wireless router
- Login Required, PPPoE Mode
- wireless On
- DHCP: On
- IP : 192.168.1.1
Connection:
From Modem ethernet --> Wireless Router WAN
PC (Fixed IP) --> Lan port 2
Other wireless device (Auto IP) --> Wireless AP

I am trying on this setting B, but i cant get internet connection..

any idea why ??

and any other combination?

thanks for your feedback!!

i using AM 300 also...my setting is like this

AM 300
Encapsulation: Bridge Mode only
DHCP:On
DSL Modulation : Auto
IP : 10.0.0.2 ( i change it )

Belkin 54g Wireless router
- Login Required, PPPoE Mode
- wireless On
- DHCP: On
- IP : 192.168.1.1

there is a problem if i use this setting which is i cannot log in to my modem page...

i try the A setting also but i will get dced if i idle for awhile(few hour)...

beside that.....there is no updated firmware at the official website...so do driver

oh ya can i ask you can use usb to connect or not...coz i cannot install the driver from the CD given...i think my driver cd file corrupted....

i m using AM300 also, juv bought wrt54g yesterday and i faced this problem, error msg : can not get ip address from PPPoE server;
ermmm...
my setting is
AM 300
Encapsulation : Bridge mode only
DHCP:off
DSL modulation L: Auto
IP : 192.168.1.2

WRT54G
login required, PPPoE mode
DHCP: off
IP:192.168.1.1

i cant connect to the internet..
anyone using these modem and wifi router? need help

change your AM300 modem ip to 192.168.2.1
enable your WRT54G DHCP

Setting B causes conflict as the modem and router has the same ip. A common ip for modem is 10.0.0.1 and router is 192.168.1.1

There's no need to turn on DHCP if you've already fixed your IP on your network adapter as stated.

kytehx, you can use usb if your modem supports it. But you'll still need to install the drivers before plugging it into the usb port.

i try to use usb b4 but seem like i cant install the driver...i think the driver at the cd is corrupted...

hi kytehx, why do you need to use USB instead of LAN?
and your setting looks good .. still cant online?

here is the setting that i use....for u guys as reference..
AM 300 (connect to wireless router WAN port)
Encapsulation : Bridge mode only
DHCP:off
Firewall: OFF
DSL modulation : T1.413 Issue 2 (I notice that AUTO mode sometimes connected at wrong speed)
IP : 192.168.1.2

WRT54G
login required, PPPoE mode
DHCP: ON (dun need this if u use static IP for ur computer)
Firewall: ON
IP:192.168.1.1

This setting always work for me.

hi cyberic,

can you access AM300 modem directly from ur PC?
my setting looks similiar to yours except the IP for AM300, i couldnt remember what IP i set for my AM300... die lah

hence i cant go in to AM300 and check for my DSL modulation.

actually, the wireless router I bought it for my gf and I oni use it for 1 day but i configure it using the same method only thing different is that modem is D-link.

No, I can't access the modem directly if connected to the router's WAN port. I usually connect direct to computer or plug it to the router's switch port to access to modem. (same IP range eg: 192.168.1.xxx will be easier to manage)

If u forget the modem's IP address. U can just reset the modem by press the reset button using a paper clip or something small for about 10 seconds (located at the back of the modem). It will revert to factory setting, then u reconfigure again.
