My Tech Adventures

Hi! As per request, I would like to quickly go over the process of using the W150D/SP3367NL as a 'Wireless Router' i.e., not using the dsl connection/telephone port but using one of the LAN ports as a WAN port! Here it is: Notes: - I am configuring W150D with SP3367NL's firmware in this case, but, the UI should be similar to the firmware from both Tenda and PTCL ISP - I am using a dsl modem in bridge mode (configured for PTCL ISP) with the aim of setting up a pppoe connection (for authentication) on the W150D to do all the routing providing lan and wireless connectivity! The ISP is PTCL but this shall also work with other ISPs that use pppoe even including Nayatel (FTTH/FTTU)! 1. Login to the router. If the wizard shows up, just click on Advanced Settings to land on the Status page!  2. Goto Advanced Setup->Connection Mode (To continue reading, please click on 'Read More')

I have decided to write down about all the routers I have collected (so far) alongwith relevant tweaks or configuration options! The first one is the Medion MDWLAN 140 that also has MD 95038 printed on it! It's a simple ADSL router (does not support ADSL2+) with wireless b/g support (via mini-pci adapter card) but having the unique feature of dial-up support as well (handy in case dsl goes down) ... there is supposed to be a usb wifi dongle as well, but, I don't have it ... and it creates quite a light show with bright leds! Here are some pics: Here is the interface (configured for the ISP PTCL): (To continue reading, please click Read More)
