Trouble establishing connection to Eircom Broadband

Hi Caff,

I'm having similar problems hooking up wireless access on my Eircom Broadband service. I have a Netopia router which works fine, but when I try to configure my wireless Belkin router with this I fail to get a connection. I previously had no problems getting wireless access when I was with BT.

When I log on to http://192.168.1.254/ I cannot find a wireless option either under local network on side menus, have I missed something?
 
If you have a separate broadband modem/router and a wireless/LAN router then you need to configure these separately. Which one does http://192.168.1.254 connect to? You will need to connect to the other one
using a different IP address.
 
Can I suggest you try to connect directly to your phone socket with the supplied modem with phone line and see if the DSL light will actually stay Green.
 
Pablod007. Is it a wireless netopia router? Log on to the netopia page(192.168.1.254).In the left column click "basic mode" the wireless icon will then be visible.Another tip is to save the netopia page in your favourites.You must be connected to the router by ethernet cable to enable/configure the wireless settings.
