You mean that this is the error displayed on the router (e.g. when connecting a web browser to the router's configuration application - e.g. often http://192.168.1.1 or something like that by default)?We're having no luck connecting for the first time to Eircom Broadband - and even less getting useful help from Eircom support line.
In short, a wired connection via "grey box" modem. All wires connected correctly. Can get Local Area Network connection but cannot connect to internet because "DSL is down"
Can't see why not assuming that this is a wireless adaptor in the first place? Bear in mind that the issue of connecting your PC to the LAN/router (via wireless or wired connection) is totally separate from connecting your router to eircom/the internet via DSL!Computer is about four years old. It has Intel PRO/100 VE Network Connection. (Would this be sufficent to get a wireless connection?)
How so? You said that it worked in the alternative location which would mean that you can use the service. If this is the case then all you need to do is figure out the difference between this location and your preferred one.Have even taken the modem to another location where it worked perfectly within seconds.

Meanwhile, we presume we're being charged for a service we can't actually use yet.

Sorry to interrupt your conversation, but I figured since my problem was similar I might as well use this thread instead of making a new one. I also have a Eircom modem. Its a "Netopida 2247NWG-VGx Wi-Fi gateway" My problem is that I can not set up a Wi-Fi Network for the life of me. I am trying to connect my Nintendo Wii to the internet and I can't figure it out. I think I might have to go into the modem via a web browser and change settings but I'm not sure. Does anyone second this idea?
P.S. Also, does anyone know the default password for this kind of modem. I can not figure out the default password either
Thanks in advance
you are right. to setup the wireless part you will need to connect to the modem using a cable to turn it on. oin your web browser type in
192.168.1.254
this should give you a netopia screen. there should me menu options there when you can switch on the wireless and set up security etc.
Do you happen to know the default password
