<title>[Guide] Using 327w as a router for Comcast</title>

<description><![CDATA[<A HREF="/useremail/u/1416809"><b>sheldon92</b></A> : Most likely you had the 327w because you had Verizon like me, recently i got Comcast and i was completely lost, thanks to some people i got a basis on how to get it to work, but the end result was based on trial and error.<br><br>Before we start you need to do 2 things 1 get all the setting for your Comcast connection. To do this go to start -> run. Type in cmd and press enter. Then you will bring up the command prompt. Type in ipconfig /all. Write down all the information, even though you wont be needing it all.<br><br>Now you have to attach the 327w properly.<br><br>E1 -> Should be connected to nothing (yet)<br>E2 -> Should be connected to computer.<br><br>Unplug the Ethernet Cable that goes to your Cable modem.<br><br>Your comcast should turn off but you dont need that right now<br><br>In your webbrowser go to &raquo;<A HREF="http://192.168.1.1/" >192.168.1.1/</A><br><br>First you should reset the 327w to Factory Settings to do this<br>go to maintenance -> Backup/Restore <br><br>From here select the 3rd option, which is restore to factory settings.<br><br>Now your 327w will reset and then you will be prompted with an id and pass (your old id and pass wont work)use this info<br>id: admin<br>pass: password<br><br>Now you will be prompted to connect a DSL line, but you dont want that so click cancel.<br><br>After a while you will go to a screen which tells you to change you id and pass. Change it to w/e you want.<br><br>Now you will go to the home of Wirespeed Data Gateway.<br><br>As soon as you get there you will recieve a pop up, telling you to create a new connection.<br><br>Name the connection: Comcast or whatever you want. dont put anything for isp id and isp pass<br><br>Just press next from there until it says finish, when its done the pop-up will close<br><br>This is where you will be needing all that information!<br><br>So now go to Advanced LAN -> DNS<br><br>For the domain name put the Connection -specific DNS Suffix from the ipconfig thing.<br><br>Then under "Static Host Assignment" Add 192.168.0.1<br><br>Now go to Advanced WAN. and under the drop down menu change from "DSL ATM Port" To "Ethernet Port 1"<br><br>Now in that same page click the edit button.<br><br>On the Drop down menu choose "Routed"<br><br>Under Router Settings<br>Dhcp Client should be disabled.<br><br>Now in the boxes fill in whatever you wrote down from ipconfig.<br><br>After you are done filling out the boxes press set.<br><br>Now press edit again, now this time enable DHCP client, and press set again.<br><br>Now you should be able to browse the web on your computer.<br>You have just made the 327w a router for your Cable Modem.<br><br>now you can go to Wireless -> Basic to edit your SSID<br><br>Wireless -> Security to set you Wep Key<br><br>and now on your other computer which is wirelessly enabled you can access you Cable.<br><br>Most of the stuff that i did here im not 100% sure will do anything i just guessed and checked and all these settings worked for me. :D]]></description>
