Im on ADSL atm, if i move to cable NTL, would my "Belkin Wireless G+ MIMO Modem Router" still be fine?

It says ADSL/ADSL2 do i not need a cable router instead?

If not, how would i connect it up?

Bout to order NTL 4Mb soon as i get reply:)
 
You will need a 'Cable' Router. Very straight forward too. Lynksys are good. Fitted a few for mates with NTL. There is a CD that walks you through the process!

only if you connect through the usb cable.

i got ntl 4mb, i use a linksys wrt54g router which i connect with ethernet rj45 cables. I got 1 cable from the ntl modem to my router, and 1 cable from the router to the pc. nothing needs setting up except for the wireless. and you wont need a new router as i read on the router page

Connect directly to your Broadband ADSL line or your Ethernet Modem to create a Wireless Network in your home or office.

rj45 cables, i take it these are supplied with the ntl modem :)

Thanks for that i can rest !

A friend just ordered ntl4mb and told me he just plugged his ntl modem into his router and it worked with no setting up :eek:

On another note will i have to erase the settings already on my router first?

I've got the belkin MIMO router and works a treat and I'm got NTL. The modem supplied by NTL works of both USB & Ethernet, so long as you set using the ethernet it will work fine.

i'm not sure if you'll have to erase settings. if your router is on automatic dhcp then you wont need to. but since your connecting thru the phoneline im guessing your using a username and pass stored in the router so i think yea you will need to change it a tad bit.
 
Guys, my NTL has being installed today and i cant get my router to work.

I have it connected like you said but not sure where to go from there?

I click an internet page it doesnt display :( Going through the cd i get error at the end saying cant connect to service.

Ok i power cycle the router and rebooted it, and im on the internet :eek:

I cant connect to thr control panel tho? 192.168.2.1 does not work anymore? And my laptop cant connect to internet but it can connect to the network.

Any idears?
 
Start > Run > type 'cmd' hit enter, then type 'ipconfig' you'll see some information appear in the dos box, if you look at the 'default gateway' line, that is the IP of your router and the one you need to use to access your config pages.
 
It does not work, i typed in all the ips....Its now seemed to stop working after a restart :mad:

Are you guys sure NTL works with a Belkin g+ MIMO cos i cant seem to crack it.

If someone who has this router on ntl, or anyone else similar who can help me step by step that would be great thanks.

At the mo i have cable modem direct into my pc.
 
The cable modem is connected direct to my pc via ethernet, Its working fine, downloading 500kb/s.

Im going to have a look at that guide in a second, thanks mate.

p.s ive had my belkin router working fine with PIPEX (ADSL) took me 5mins to set up with the wizard.)
 
The guide says plug my modem into the WAN then my computer into any of the 1-4 ports.

My router doesnt have a WAN. Just a dsl and 1-4
