(Note: If you want pics/images of my Linksys router to Aztech DSL605E modem setup, you can go down straight below. But I recommend reading thru the post first then following the instructions.)

I just recently (like 8 hours ago from this writing) got connected to the Globelines broadband internet. Though I am still connected to Smart Bro, I will cut the connection next week. Before I explain the steps, I’d just would like to give a brief overview on my wireless setup at home.

I have a Linksys WRT54G wireless router and I used it with Smart Bro just by connecting the Smart Bro connections RJ45 cable to the LAN port of the router. This is the best thing and only perk Smart Bro has in my opinion. I use the wireless router to make my house a hotspot and to connect my laptop to the internet via Wifi. I also have an old desktop which is not Wifi-enabled and thus needs to be connected to the router via cable.

Now, the Globelines connection has a different setup. It uses a modem unlike Smart Bro. I am not that familiar with the different modems Globelines uses but the steps in configuring the router and the modem should be similar. Here goes:

1) Connect your laptop/PC to the linksys router via RJ45 cable.

2) Go to the router’s admin page via 192.168.1.1 and change the default IP to 192.168.1.2 (this is assuming that your Aztech modem’s gateway is 192.168.1.1 which is usually the case…).

3) Make sure that the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and then disable DHCP. Save the settings.

4) Connect the modem to the router via one of the LAN ports and not thru the WAN port(internet port). This is important. This makes the modem and the router bridged and they are now in 1 subnet.

5) Reboot everything from PC to router to modem. The wireless router should now be connected to the modem.

The steps above would enable any Wifi-enabled devices to connect to the Internet thru via the router. However, if you need to connect a laptop or a PC via cable, you need to follow some similar steps as above. Just go the LAN’s settings, set the IP, subnet mask, gateway, DNS, etc… as above. This would make the router, modem and PC(connected via cable) in one subnet. Reboot everything and the cable-connected PC should now have internet access.

So if you are successful in following the steps above, your setup should look something like this:
