Re: [Home Networking] Sync Loss when connected to router
O.K. I tried that quickly before I had to go out of town. The Sync light and the PPPoE light came on on the modem, but I could connect to the internet and couldn't access the modem to get the stat's from it. I could access the router but I don't know how to get the stats from it. |

| When the UHP Modem is left handling the PPPoE login and your Wired or Wireless Router behind it is setup for DHCP (aka Automatically Get IP Address) then you will have access to both the Web Interfaces of the UHP Modem at »172.16.0.254/ and the Linksys Router at »192.168.1.1/ using your Browser.
What happens in that setup configuration is you are letting the UHP Modem get your Public IP on the UHP Modem's WAN Interface (since it handles the PPPoE duties) and it has a LAN Interface IP of »172.16.0.254/ that then gives your Linksys Router WAN Interface a IP of »172.16.1.11/ (or 172.16.1.12 or 13, or 14) and the Linksys LAN Interface is still at »192.168.1.1/ and the Linksys will still hand out 192.168.1.x IPs.
This way you can still access both units and get the DSL Stats while still being able to share the connection by using the Linksys Router features.
When it is configured correctly, you can access either unit or both units at the same time (using two browser windows or tabs in that case).
To reach the UHP use »172.16.0.254/
To reach the Linksys use »192.168.1.1/
