Can't use my new router

emperor_krunchy

I'm with smart broadband
and just today got a "Buffalo WBMR-G54" along with a laptop
I'm trying to set it up as wireless but I can't seem to get on the internet at all
I'm conected tot he network just no internet.
I can go onto the "192.168.1.1" but nothing about imputing any setting etc
It mostly already in there
as in the VPI and VCI are at 8 and 35
did I miss anything?
or any ideas?

Make sure you have VPI and VCI the right way around.

emperor_krunchy

yep they are
any other ideas?
theres a page that i have to fill in but some info is not supplied

should i enable UPnP
and then slect a Pvc0-7 which 1?

100% absolutely forget about getting wireless working. Get it working with wired first. That's 99% of the problem. You are complicating things by getting wireless internet working through your router especially if you are not 100% confident in what you are doing.

ok im going wired at the moment
im on the http://192.168.1.1/
to configure the router
it says to enter the static info from your isp
it is as follows:

VPI (i have it as) 8
VCI (i have it as) 35
IP ADRESSS
SUBNET MASK
ISP GATEWAY ADRESS
PRIMARY DNS ADRESS
SECONDARY DNS ADRESS
CONECTION TYPE: Pick Either...... IPoA
1483 Routed IP LLC VC-Mux
1483 Routed IP LLC
1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux
1483 Bridged IP LCC

do you know the other settings? thanks

All this information is in the link by jor el. Have a quick look.

EDIT : Connection type should be PPPOE in your list.

i'm with Smart Telecom and when I was setting up a wireless router, I remember I had to fill in a username and password. The username is your phone number and the password consists on 12 letters.
This was posted out to you when you signed up to Smart Broadband.

Do you have those filled in? I never worked with a Buffalo router so I wouldn't know exactly where to fill them in.

in the link are they under different names because its not the same as above.
also
there is no PPPOE option though
just :
IPoA
1483 Routed IP LLC VC-Mux
1483 Routed IP LLC
1483 Bridged IP VC-Mux
1483 Bridged IP LCC

as for the password etc at the moment it seems to be admin for both
i havnt needed my phone number at all

That's a problem, as you're going to need that.

Then you're not looking at the right config page yet. The Admin name and password is just to access the router. your DSL connection has a username and password that you have to fill in. The username is the phone number, including your area code, and the password is on your welcome letter from Smart.

You will get asked for your username [phone number] and password when you select PPPOE connection type.

If you don't have PPPOE, then I don't know where to go next. I've never heard of this happen before for an ADSL router, seriously.

emperor_krunchy

ok i managed to get the PPPoE setting on it

i inputed my phone number along with given password into the wizzard
which almost does everything automatically from there

i still cant get in the net though
its connection status stays at
"waiting for a response"

any more ideas?

In a command prompt window [Start -> Run -> CMD]

EDIT : AND what do you see if you type

ipconfig /all
