Thank you guys. I now know not to use cellpipe for the wireless connection. I will just go and grab some cheap wireless router then. Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated.
As well for TP-8816, I can just use the factory setting to connect to teksavvy 7/1 right? is there anything I need to change within the firmware or the modem?
A TP-Link 1043ND router can be had for $50 or less, and I'm happy with its performance although I did have to RMA the first one due to frequent wired & wireless dropouts.
The 8816 comes with a setup wizard on the mini-CD that comes with it, all you should need to change/alter is enter your login credentials as supplied by Teksavvy. With the 8816, you can use it to log in directly, or have the router supply the modem with the logon credentials.
