thanks for your help but when i got to configation -wan the encapulation was onpppoa/vcmux (correct) that it ask for my user name and password ,was that my bt broadband which i put in or my e-mail address one which i have just thought about ? i tried admin again but it did work as my connect status for the wan port did not show.i checked my filters they are correct.
in my connecting network i have only bt broadband showing
my router is local area connect 4 status connection speed 10.0 mbps is connected but not letting me on the internet

Can you bypass the router or is it a combo modem/router?

i have a bt (british telecom) modem giving me broadband and now a etec router to obtain wireless network

Does the router have a reset switch. On most of the ones I work on it is a hole you stick a paper clip in to reset it to its factory settings. From there you should be able to get in and set it up.

yes reset button but how does that get me through second user name and password in wan configuration to give me my connection status for the wan port

It resets the router to the way it came out of the box. From there you should be able to set it up.

I wonder if i could have some advice please?
I have managed to install an ETEC wireless router and i am running two pc's from it. Eveything seems to work fine but on two seperate occasions the network slows down and then i find i cant get back on the internet. I sometimes get error messages saying that their is a conflict with ip adresses.
I am on Karoo Broadband and after ringing them they tell me to reset my pc which seems to work. Is there something i havent done right when setting up my router or is it just one of those things?
