Yup, put in the CD and do what the wizard says. It's a piece of cake.

Have you connected the lan cable properly? If yes, just unplug the cable and plug it again, then wait for a minute for the PC to get an IP address from the router. Then try again.

I'm able to access internet( through lan ) without any configuration. But wifi is not working

My Local ISP provider is telling that it doesn't work with their network. He is telling TP-Link w8968 is for Bsnl,Reliance like connections etc. I told him that it has one LAN/WAN port through which i can use, but he doesn't listen to me. He just says that it is "Adsl" "Adsl" "Adsl"....... What should i do guys. Anyone using TPlink w8968(or anyother Adsl ) with Beam or any other provider.

Wait. So. You aren't on bsnl? Damn, shouldn't have started out with the 2750u.

But, the w8968 supports LAN/WAN connections. What are your current router settings in your old router?

 

[mahindar]

this is my first one

In the quick setup mode choose the wireless router mode instead of the adsl router mode. Then choose Dynamic IP from the next options (PPPOE/Dynamic/Static IP) since your ISP doesn't provide any login details. Then continue the rest of the setup and check after completion.

Also check from cmd ->ipconfig -all what are the current local ip address you get when plug your ISP cable directly to the system. If its same every time, it might be a static local ip and you can then change this in the router as well instead of the Dynamic IP option. It's all under Network Tab->Wan Settings when you log into the router through browser interface.

Remember Lan4 is the E-WAN port so the plug the cable into the lan4 port in the wireless router mode.

- Yes Mine is Static IP. I have the ip address and DNS values.

- I don't know why 192.168.1.1 doesn't opens some times. I even tried tplinkmodem.net ,tplinklogin.net but with no success. When i got a idea of how to configure these links are not opening.

- Yes i was using LAN/Wan port as the source and any one from other three goes to my PC.

- Can I configure the router without connecting internet source to Lan/wan port(I mean without the internet connection) . Because my local provider said when i last connected the wan to router it effected other users of my area. So I'm afraid to connect the wan cable to router. I hope you underst00d what i'm saying

- I have one doubt without connecting to internet can i use w8968 to transfer files b/w pc and laptop
