| Configure 2701hg-b for other provider Hello, ive been looking all over the internet for the answer to this question and cant find anything... here's what im wanting to do.
i recently moved and had to shutoff at&t and the place i moved to is too far out to use at&t.
i signed up with a different internet service from the local telephone department.... i still have my 2701hg-b modem.
is there any way possible to configure my 2701hg-b modem work with the new service provider?
i did not get any type of modem with their service because it was an extra 75$.
i would like to use all of the same functions as i did with at&t(ethernet connections and wireless connections)
can anybody help me with this, surely there is some type of configuration that will allow me to use my old at&t modem with this new service.
thanks in advance. |

Indy | You need to find out if the dsl uses dhcp or pppoe to obtain the internet/public ip address
What vpi/vci is required
The isp needs to tell you this info
The 2701HG-B is a combination ADSL2+ Modem/Router Gateway |

Sorry for the double post but...
i had my wife take this modem to them and they said they programmed it to work with their service and it worked fine for them.
but when i get it home, it doesnt pick up any DSL signal...
is it something wrong on my end or what?
i have 2 of these modems so i can leave one with the settings they gave and i can use the other one to use the settings you may help me get.. |

Go to this 2wire page
192.168.1.254/xslt?PAGE=B05
Here's a picture of that page with the settings you need
After making the changes click the save button

You can take the modem outside to the telephone box(nid) mounted on a outside wall and connect the modem to the test jack |
