Re: Can switch to PPP make a 327W unstable?

said by subinthapa:

If I go back into the setup page after half an hour or more, it will show two connections.

Can you post a picture of the page that shows two connections

Click for full size
Both show the correct speed at the moment, but they drop in unison when the problem occurs.

I think that the "second connection" is not real

The second connection is not real. It disappears when the router is rebooted. The question is, does it indicate that I have a setting messed up in the configuration, or is the router having some sort of hardware problem and might need to be replaced soon? DSL Extreme tried to sell me a new one because they don't support this one, but they admitted it should work fine with PPP.

It might be a configuration problem.

#1 In the router select the My Network icon.

#2 Then select Network Connections from the left menu

#3 On the Broadband Connection screen click on the words "(Broadband Connection DSL".)

You will see a screen that looks like the screen that you see at »Verizon Online DSL FAQ »How do I use a router with the Westell 6100? just after the directions of

I don't think the westell is going bad or that its configuration is messed up

Then what do you think about the OP's issue?

Thanks

The html for that page is messed up, the "second connection" info is a repeat of the first connection

Details for the "Broadband Connection (DSL)" screen:

Under PPP Connection Profile, there is only one connection, named "My Connection" (just like shown in the referenced FAQ post)

Below, under VCs, only one is shown with the PPPoE protocol. If I click the plus sign below it, I see six disabled Bridge protocol VCs.

It appears that this is the case regardless of whether the main screen shows the appropriate connection overview or not. The original problem hasn't changed. We still need to restart the modem a couple times a day.
