Question : Linksys Router and AOL DSL?
|
|
Can anyone tell me how to hook up a Linksys wireless router to AOL DSL. I have heard it may not be possible as AOL is very proprietary. If anyone has instructions please let me know. The router is the standard 149.00 wireless unit you get at best buy with the access points sold seperately.

I haven't done it with AOL's DSL, but have hooked up the Linksys routers to other DSL connections without any problems. What you should be able to do is set up the WAN port on the router with the same configuration as you have on your PC that's hooked up to the DSL connection. (i.e. use DHCP on the WAN port of the router if that's what's being used on your PC, or copy the static IP info and DNS servers). Then set up DHCP on the router to provide dynamic IP to your clients, and change your clients to get IP from DHCP.
