First i'd recommend you upgrade the firmware to the latest 7.4.x
Second have the modem be bridge in the setup then connect to WAN port of linksys router and let it do the PPPoE Dialing. |

if possible connect the modem directly to the Demarc to bypass any bad home wires that could help with the errors your getting and provide a more stable connection. |

| Hi,
I'm sorry BryanViper, i appologize but i must point
out that i already explained to you why connecting
directly at the demarcation box doesn't "bypass" the
parasitic components which are present on a faulty
home wiring or, to the very least, not completely...
It's not good enough to connect directly at the root
because when doing so the customer would simply fail
to account for non-twisted wires hidden behind walls
which can easily amount to a few hundred feet. I'm
sorry but such a huge mesh of flat cables would be a
perfect candidate as a parasitic A.M. antenna if you
consider that the A.M. and DSL bands are overlaping!
The lines are not differentiated until a filter makes
them separate, A.M. waves captured upstairs can very
well travel up to the demarcation box and propagate
toward the MoDem, even when the phone is "filtered". |

| Hi,
What's "awesome" exactly, static numbers like his
SNR Margin and Attenuation levels?... Two resets
per day isn't particularily impressive and we can't
trust the counters since Thomson's FirmWare has
most probably cleared them as a consequence of
the 1st reset... Consequently, it's totally possible
there could have been a five thousand CRC Error
burst before the 2nd reset without a trace of it... |

1 edit | Okay perhaps a few questions.
Does his adapter drivers support WPA and you are using WPA2?
Does his adapter drivers only support TKIP and you are using AES?
Is MAC adresse control enabled and blocking him?
I know it seems basic, but firtst things first.
