 | [DD-WRT] Zyxel P660HW-t1 v2 + WRT54GL (DD-WRT) Hello All, I've been trying to use my Zyxel P660 as a modem only: 1. Setup P660 to bridge mode. 2. Changed WRT54GL's IP address to 192.168.2.1 to avoid a conflict on the network. 3. Configured the PPPoE settings as required on WRT54GL.
The thing is that when I connect the Zyxel modem/router on the WRT54GL's internet port the light doesn't turn on. I can confirm that this port has been working ok, so I'm not really sure what's going between the devices. I checked several settings such as IPs, tried disabling DHCP on Zyxel/Linksys, Firewall on both and still nothing. Also, I tried connecting Zyxel directly to a computer in bridge mode and dialed successfully.
Can someone shed some light onto this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Please, let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks! |

 | reply to Destillat grcore was in the right track. I disabled the auto-negotiation on the DD-WRT and put it on 100mb, then connected to the Zyxel through telnet and forced LAN port 1 to be at 100mb as well and the Linksys was able obtain a connection on the WAN port. 
Thanks so much for your help on this!  |

 | Could you please elaborate? I'm in the exact same situation, but don't know how to do some things (like "forced the LAN port 1 to be at 100mb as well" in the zyxel). |
