said by danielR8:hello everyone,
i've been having problems with setting a WRT54G Linksys wireless router.
i'm using a TP-LINK 8816 modem, which works ok (LAN coble to pc connected], and Teksavvy [TS] people was instrumental in helping me set it up.
so, the purpose of this note is to request opinions / recommendations / warnings? about the TP-LINK 8961ND , which is a combo modem + 4 ports router. seems an economical fit for what i need:
my Ts plan is 7 / 1; not very ambitious in term of of speed, precisely.
any assistance will be kindly appreciated.
TIA,
danielR
Should be more than adequate for that connection, especially in a small home or an apartment/condo.
Before writing off your WRT54G, what's happening with it? They've been around over a decade, but they're pretty durable. If you're having trouble getting online, try accessing the interface (default is 192.168.1.1) and changing its IP to something like 192.168.5.1 so that it doesn't have the same address as your 8816. Beyond that, if it's dead, it's dead.
