Please suggest a router ( reliance ethernet broadband )

[Sushubh]

no i cannot tell you. search for the model name on the web. find images that shows the port area of the devices and see for yourself.

when properly configured, your desktop would not be needed to be turned on for the wireless network to work. but as you do know that reliance logs you out after a few minutes of inactivity, you would need to login through your mobile devices.

i cannot personally confirm if logging through a wireless network is possible on reliance broadband. should work however. i helped a friend in getting his wireless network online and it seems to work for him.

Alright!! i will check them..
Thanks a lot for your responses
It was really helpful.

I would need help from other fellow reliance users reg this, hopefully someone responds.

i mean when i got my reliance connection, i did connect it to my existing wireless router that is now connected to the bsnl modem and it did work fine. @cisco_tech might be able to help. I think he is on Reliance too.

This is MetroE. The standalone routers @chromaniac suggested should work out fine.

No idea if you'd need to dial from the router or not. I think not.

Obviously i dont need an ADSL router since i dont have a model to replace with. Its a direct wifi router without modem.
My question is that i need a router for this connection where i don't have to switch on my desktop ( primary connection ) to use my other devices like lap or mob

 

[Sushubh]

reliance has provided you with a modem right?
the router would connect to that modem.
and as long as both the devices are turned on and you are logged in on the reliance portal. the net would work without your desktop running.

 

[karthickr]

No there is no modem @chromaniac , Its a direct Ethernet connection as @x720 mentioned. I only have a high speed ethernet cable connected to my PC from the reliance server. There is no Modem

 

[Sushubh]

hmm. i guess it's better than dealing with another hardware in between.

@OP

Is the connection mac bound, and has the reliance tech done some IP address setting in the PC?

 

[karthickr]

No, there is no IP address setting done. I just have to connect the cable to my ethernet port and login to the reliance net through the webpage and start using it
