Airtel Broadband: Static IP with Airtel

[netfreak]

assign 192.168.1.6 [and all other settings that are on your laptop] to Netgear. Or you can turn on DHCP.Once you do that, change LAN option so that netgear assigns 192.168.15.X IP to Laptop.This way IP range of Netgear and ADSL router will not clash.

@Netfreak.Thanks for your solution. I will implement it once I return home from office.What I understand from your suggestion:1. Copy the appropriate values from the system TCP/IP setting setting to Netgear. Apply. Reboot router and test.2. In case of more than one laptop connecting to Wi-Fi routerenable DHCP in ADSL Modem.(or Netgear Wi-Fi Router). I could not get this point completely.3. LAN Change option. I did not get it. Can you please clarify , if you have some time? Regards,J a c k

airtel uses static ip for unlimited connections????

Nope, UL connections have Dynamic IPs, i do know that certain Business connections do get one or more static IPs, i don't know that if any Home connections even get static IPs.

haan sushubh bhai, jo bhi koi naya connection le raha hai, usse static they rahe hein (unlimited plans)....@jack - wifi router is askin for internal IP - my suggestion - don't put any value in router, let any value there which is by default; set IP and DNS automatically (after copying current value somewhere) of both computer and laptop and any other machine u wanna connect to internet.... U'll be set, up n runnin......

Hi,Thanks a lot to all of you who are spending their time to help me out.@Ashish, Thanks for your suggestion I had sneaked into my house during lunch hours to check this static IP thin. I did Wizard on Modem, and gave just the userid and password. Nothing else.@SushubhI am confused as how to get this Wireless. Any friend or any post where any information linked to this has been mentioned?@NetfreakIf you could plz elaborate, "change LAN option so that Netgear assigns 192.168.15.X IP to Laptop" in your reply?I have been trying from evening for workaround, but with no success. Guess tonite also I have settle with no Wi-Fi.Any solutions, or post or links which can help me out?Regards,J a c k.

You need to go into LAN IP Setup on Netgrear, and there is an option to manage IP range of clients.There Enter 192.168.15.2 -- 192.168.15.255That is required because:1. ADSL router assignes adress in 192.168.1.X space2. If Netgear's OWN IP is 192.168.1.X then net wont work if your Laptop's IP is in the same rangeI posted a screenshot of Exact steps a year or 2 ago on this forum. Search should turn up that post.
