how to connect the cable modem to a wifi router with auto dial

[rforums]

i want to connect the cable modem given by YOU broadband to a wifi router.
I need to use my smartphone with this. Since i need to dial everytime, i dont know how to setup.
I have a Linksys WAG54G2 wifi router. What settings i have to configure to get it to auto dial so that i can access internet from my phone.
If not with this router, is there any other wifi router that can do this?

First of all , You Broadband does not offer Cable Modem. Cable Modem in India is only offered by 2 ISP i.e Hathway & Ortel Communication both of which uses DOCSIS. You Broadband is just another ISP who uses Ethernet to provide Internet Connection.
Option 1 :
Check the settings of the modem/ router which they have installed. Mostly it will be having a PPPoE Dialer which will be authorized by the mac address.
You will need a Router which allows Mac Address change , Replace the Stock Router and Put your New Shiny Router.
Option 2 :
Bring a Wireless Router , Put it in bridge mode and connect it to your Broadband Modem. Your devices will take DHCP from Broadband Modem.

YOU also uses DOCSIS in certain places

It is not You which is offering DOCSIS , It was IQARA who was offering DOCSIS in some parts which was later adopted by YOU as they changed name . So basically no new network bought up by YOU offers DOCSIS.

Yep, DOCSIS is/was used by IQARA when they first set up their network in Gurgaon.
