Re: 3Com and seeing other PCs in "My Network places" said by Iguanaman :The model is 3CRWDR200A-75 OfficeConnect ADSL wireless 108mbps 11g firewall route The 3com is also a dsl modemsaid by Iguanaman :Well the linksys is a backup system in case the current (3com) router dies we can replace it with the linksys until we get another The linksys is useless without a dsl modemsaid by Iguanaman :I'd like to figure out how to get the 3com to behave like the Linksys but so far I don't know what setting would do that You may be able to get the 3com to behave like the Linksys only after you know/learn what type of dsl internet connection you have now
Do you know if you need pppoe to connect to the internet Can you access the configuration pages of the 3com
When you have a computer directly connected to the 3com do you need to click anything on the computers desktop to connect to the internet
Can you tell me what the linksys internet connection type is set to |

 | The linksys is also a ADSL modem/router. They serve the same function, just the settings are somehow different.
The connection is 1483 bridged LLC. The IP address is dynamic. (DHCP is left unchecked) VPI = 0, VCI = 35. |

 | and no we do not have to click on anything to connect to the internet for either modem/router |

 wayjacPremium,MVM join:2001-12-22 Indy | Here's a page from a linksys adsl router
If you could post a picture of this page from your linksys or the info from this page The vc settings and ip settings are needed to identify how the internet connection is made
Can you access the configuration pages of the 3com if you can a picture of it's configuration summary page would help |
|
 | The problem there is once we set the mode to LLC bridged the modem reboots and we can never access the settings (on either router) unless we completely reset the modem back to default settings again.
There should be some specific setting that alters the way the 3com deals with the ip address (public vs private lan) and unless you know what that setting is I am not sure what the information you are requesting will provide. I gave you the VC settings and IP settings in the previous posts. |

It looks like the linksys internet connection type is automatic/dhcp the linksys status page should show that
I can only guess about the 3com internet connection type You should be able to call your isp and get them to help you |
