Re: how to setup at&t 2wire without CD installation disc

very simple...you need to take note though that AT&T has a separate password for email and "network" which you use to setup the modem to access AT&T's network.

connect dsl modem to phone jack, turn it on, make sure it synchs...connect pc to ethernet port [1-4, you choose].

fire up IE, type in 192.168.1.254, click enter....it should bring up a screen to let you type in your username [email address] and password [network password]. if you don't have or forgot the network password, call AT&T and get them to give you one.

IF you see and feel it was used in another account before, unplug the modem, press that reset button [don't let go yet], plug power, count to 35, then let go of the reset button.

IMO, you'd be better off with a 3347 than a 2Wire 2701. I wouldn't trade my 3347 for a truckload of 2701.

lastly, your question should be posted in this forum...»AT&T Southeast

well, if the 2wire does not work, how would I go back to my wired setup? I have a wired setup now, with a speedstream 5100b modem, a trendnet ethernet switch, hooked with cat 5e ethernet wires to a dell pc, & cat5e ethernet wires to a macbook pro in another room with a static IP address.

Nothing to change, only replace the 5100b.

Look fora 3347-02-1006, 1006L, or a 1022, the latter being the latest.
