    Hi Friends,

    I just bought a Belkin N150 Wireless Router. I followed the instructions on the Quick Installation guide leaflet, which i have uploaded:

    Then I insert the CD and run the setup assistant. It checks the connection to the router and then prompts a restart. After the restart, I am prompted to name the connection

    In the next step, I am asked what kind of connection I have. I call up AirTel (my ISP) broadband customer care and ask them about this. The customer care executive replies that it is a PPPoE connection. So i select that and click Next.

    Now, I am asked for the login details. The customer care executive provides me with my login info. I type all this and click next.

    Next, the setup tries to connect to the internet and a progress bar appears.

    After the progress bar reaches 100%, the following screen comes up:

    The 'Wired' and 'Modem' status lights on the router are green. The 'Internet' status light is orange and it blinks.

    So what am I doing wrong here? The Airtel executive tells me that there may be a conflict with the LAN addresses of the Airtel Modem and the Belkin Router. I have uploaded the config pages of both the Airtel Modem and the Belkin router, as you can see both have different IP addresses

    My system config is:

    Core2 6300 @1.86Ghz
    Intel(R) 82566DC Gigabit Network Connection
    Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit

    Any help would be appreciated! I have spent 3 hours getting this to work, but to no avail!:-(

    Can you connect to the internet without your router?

    If so, how? Software from your ISP? The login and password that you use for that acess would be the same that you would put into the router.

    I saw some other references that indicate that the PPPoE for Airtel is managed through the modem, in which case you would configure your router for Dynamic IP and take the IP address from the modem.

    The key is whether or not you can connect without the router from a single PC and if so, how.
