dear all,
i do have a bsnl broadband with a modem+ wifi router.( VMC ). my broadband disconnects every few hours and i got really tired of approaching the servicemen and finally i have planned to buy an another connection, a fibernet ( cherrinet). i did a huge mistake of buying a Belkin wireless router ( N300 ) in a hurry without knowing that it is a pure router and not modem. the fibernet serviceguys said they will install their modem and this router is ok for them as it has rj45 ports. i dont want to give up my bsnl too.
my queries are : 1- if i buy a modem without a router, which model should i go for. it should suit both bsnl broadband ( phone line) and fibernet.
2- i went through lots of online articles and finally understood that the VCM modem has a DSL port which fits for a rj11 cable, where as all the new modem+router models have rj45 ports. so, in case if i want to use my bsnl, will the new model modems are useful? is there any connectors for that?( rj11-rj45 and the vice versa).
3- last query.. the bsnl serviceman suggested to buy the modem and take it to the office for configuration.. what does it mean?
i am not a techie and i request you all to kindly reply these queries in a simple terms. sorry, if i had asked any stupid questions, above.. thank you in advance.
