LB2 with 1 computer 2 modems.

Oh, and even if I start a download on another computer it stays using 1 modem. It never uses the 2nd modem, and I have tried all 4 different load balancing selections. I have 8/19/08 firmware (I think that's the date.)

If it worked I would recommend this router, but it doesn't work.

    Modem gets mac of attached device so it will not work. After I connect the router it will "marry" the router and it will not allow the LB2 to use it.

its not to hard if you have a physical ethernet cord from point A to point B

Modem/Router ---ethernet cable--> 2nd router with dhcp off

as a bonus if you use the EXACT same SSID and password your wireless device will rome with no downtime switching networks
(oh.. very important to make certain they don't have the same IP. if main 1 is 192.168.1.1 then set the second to 192.168.1.2)

Hi

If you are using original windows 7, just go to start menu and choose windows update to get the latest modem driver for your computer. It will download and install it automatically using internet.

Also, if you can download a driver update software, it will find for your the latest driver even in windows 7 operating system.

I hope it helps you. regards.

Bought 2nd hand modem to have 2 feeds off the same broad band i alredy have anambit modem, but was hoping to use one for games , the other for pc. i tried to set up modem but although all leds showing...

You can't have two separate modems because of addressing conflicts with your service provider. You can connect one modem only. What you need is a router to allow multiple computers to share the connection. The router presents a single address to your ISP, and assigns its own addresses to the computers you connect.

Visit the site of any router company and they'll have information on setting up your own home network. It's usually a pretty simple process.

My DSL 2wire modem always blink like crazy.

DSL light blinking green/red indicates you do not have a solid connection to your DSL signal. Typically this can be anything from the connections at your home all the way to the connections with your ISP. As I do tech support for this model of 2wire modem all day long here is what I would tell you to do if you were calling me:

Are you using the proper length of phone cord (15ft or less): people sometimes have a longer phone cord in use and while it MAY work for a while outside conditions will effect the DSL signal enough that it no longer cuts the mustard. The longer the phone cord the more resistance a signal has in reaching the modem.

Filters: Typically the 2wire modem comes with 3 1-way filters and a single 2-way filter. Often people put the wrong filter on the modem, which doesn't even require one, or they put the correct filter (2-way filter) but hook it up to the wrong end (that is to say it should be connected to the DSL side of the filter). All other devices in the house such as phones, fax machines, Tivos, DVRs, Sat TVs, and monitored alarm systems (AKA anything ELSE connecting to/using the phone system) should be on filters.

Phone service: Do you have phone service? Do you have a dial tone or static? If so all problems with phone service will effect your DSL service as that is how the DSL service is piped into your home...that is to say through the phone line. Do not contact your ISP for this problem as it is a phone line problem creating your internet problem.

Phone jack location: Have you tried moving the modem, it's power cord, and proper length phone cord to another jack? Granted the argument that "it worked yesterday, so it should work today" is a strong one but sometimes putting the modem on another jack JUST to test out any potential wiring problems is a helpful one and could save you a lot of frustration. If one jack gives you red/green DSL lights and the other gives you solid green...that should speak for itself.

ISP provider: IS your service turned on? It may be a bit...hmmm...how shall we say....obvious but if your service has been turned off, or not even turned on yet, then that would be why. In addition, if the above does not help in determining what the problem is, a technician may need to be dispatched to determine where the fault lies. Sometimes it's the box down the road and sometimes it's a few miles away.

Router problems

Make sure you have the cable plugged to the right spot. Your modem to the Internet/WAN port and your computer to port 1, the 2nd pc to port 2. Try to reset the router. There's a reset button at the back of the router. Hold it down for 30 seconds. Then do a power cycle. Unplug the power from the back of the router and also unplug the power from the modem. Wait for 30 seconds. After that, Plug the power back to the modem first, wait for all the lights to be steady then plug the power back to the router. That should do it.
