DSL Flashing I brought the Zoom X6 so I can have a internet on my laptop wirelessly. Whilst installing the Zoom X6 correctly I realised that the DSL light wasn't solid. I wasn't sure if i needed to replace my Thomas Speedtouch 330 with the Zoom X6. I tried replacing the modems and the DSL light was solid on the Zoom X6 but I have no internet connection on my computer because i needed the Speedtouch to activate my connection and also connecting the laptop to the Zoom network I had no internet connection. Is there any solution to this problem, is there a way to have both speedtouch and zoom x6 connected on my computer??
You dont need both. Do the following: Unplug your speedtouch from the phone line at the back of the speedtouch unit. Plug that cable into your Zoom. Then plug one end of an ethernet cable into router and one end into your PC. Type http://10.0.0.2 into a web browser (eg. Firefox or Internet explorer) username/password is admin/zoomadsl go to basic setup and input your ISP username and password (the one given to you by your internet provider) under PPP. Click configure my connection. Save changes and then write to flash (both buttons on bottom of page)
