Need help in configuring TP-link WR740N wireless router with MTNL triband!!

[guyneedhelp]

actually i too am facing same error as raghu.I am having same router and ISP(mtnl) and using Dell inspiron n5010 laptop. I even tried the MAC cloning also but no success.In my case setup via CD fails saying "Failed to verify Router settings"My queries are:1.Should i configure router via the CD or the router homepage(192.168.0.1 in my case)2. During configuration should the laptop's WIFI be kept ON/OFF3. Can anybody give a step by step guide to configuring the router.

Hey Buddy it's the same error I was getting!Answer to your queries:1. Configure it through the router home page (192.168.0.1).2. Keep the WIFI off. Once you are able to access the net through the wired connection, disconnect and turn on the WIFI on laptop.3. Follow the exact steps as given in the install guide for the web setup.4. Always do the power cycle after the setup. Do it as many times as you make changes. It helps!Hope these steps will help. I am facing another particular issue though. The wireless connection keeps disconnecting randomly on its own. Not a huge inconvenience, as it connects right back, but would certainly like to know why??? I usually get 3-4 bars on wireless through a distance of 15 feet and 2 walls. Wireless is Bliss!!!

Check that you have the latest firmware for the wr740n. The router ships with older firmware from 2011.

The later version of 20th March 2012 addresses these disconnect issues to a large extent.

Do take a backup of all your router settings if you decide to upgrade the firmware. Please note that this can't be downgraded
if needed. The link given below is for V4 of the router hardware. Check the sticker below the router to check your hardware
version.

Voila!!Somehow figured it out that selecting the connection type as 'Dynamic IP' was the only thing i needed to do to get it working.Thank you all for chipping in with your help.

Hi,I recently purchased the TP-Link wireless router (WR740N) from flipkart, so I could have a wireless internet connection for my laptop; however, I'm getting error configuring the device. It fails at the last step of the configuration wizard, "Confirm Settings".The error I get is:"Failed to verify Router settings:"1. Please check the WAN connection type and parameters.2. Please check your network connectivity type and retry."When I remove the router, the connection with ADSL router works fine.When I go into the router setup page (192.1.0.1), I cannot see anything under WAN settings except the MAC address. All the fields are 0.0.0.0Apart from this, I have no clue what else could be wrong!!As far as I know, the username for MTNL is your phone no. and password is the customer no., which I have put in. I also tried to confirm with MTNL at 1504 but there's no option to speak with a human anymore. All they can give you is a silly docket no.!!!The less I talk about the TP-link support, the better. Their tech support does not work. They have given the support number just to show that they provide support, you cannot speak to anyone and then they disconnect!Please help!!!!!

click dynamic ip and click start put tick in the box then come back set your ppoe and proceed 100% working

I had the same prob.....
This is how i solved my problem
go to 192.168.1.1
Then go to Network and then LAN
there is an advanced button next to save button click on that and u'll see service name
To fine the service name.....connect ur internet as usual without the router
Then open control panel and open network and sharing
The network connect that has internet access click on that and select properties u,ll see the service name under the general tab.
Now do the rest of the settings that is setting up the wireless settings on your own or do the quick setup
After rebooting ur router refresh the page twice andin the status tb under WAN u should se some addresses other than 0.0.0.0
And lastly check the sent and recieved part by scrolling down.
Thats it ^_^
I hope it should work for everyone
Thanks
