Re: [modem/router] Westell 6100/ Linksys WRT54GS NIGHTMARE!

dont blame verizon please sir, third party routers are reponsability of manufactures.
Thinking that linksys support its on india i will help you

disconnect router, connect the modem directly to the computer
access the westell copy MAC address from the westell, put it bridge mode not routed bridge, disable dhcp server,
reconnect the router go to advance mac cloning type the address of the modem, be sure that u have the option automatic configuration obtain an ipaddress - dchp and joy internet access again.... how ever if u want to be connected with MAC address of the router u will need release MAC address of the modem

before go to sleep, turn off the modem ------z hard reset on the router hard reset its for about 2 minutes holding reset button, turn it off and leave everything off including the computer for 1 day and next day surprise.... u will be connected with the MAC address of the router, remember the maxium time needed to release mac address from the central office its 4 hours with nothing authenticating in ur house

post a message if it works for u

Re: [modem/router] Westell 6100/ Linksys WRT54GS NIGHTMARE!

I just got mine to work....and you don't have to do anything fancy. I just set up my house and my neighbors house. First time it took me 3 hours, the second time it took 3 minutes.

Linksys WRT54G with a Westell 6100 model on Verizon DSL.

Go into the modem and set everything to bridge, then turn off DHCP.

Enter the setup of the router (make sure you have everything set to factory defaults). Change the Internet Connection Type from Automatic Configuration DHCP to PPPoE. Enter your DSL credentials from the modem under username/password.

You are now officially on the Internet. I went through all of the steps of cloning my MAC address, rebooting pc's routers and modems and nothing worked. I'm not sure how much the guy from Linksys/Cisco makes (the one that wrote the "how to" on the Linksys website) but I'm sure it's probably too much.
