Re: I do not know the PIN to connect to Wi - Fi of my STC...
According to connection of wi-fi and stc modem you must configure the wi-fi access point and must provide the password wi-fi access point is connecting through it.Then you will be able to connect modem to it.

Does the non wifi modem give out DHCP addresses?
Can the wifi modem be set up to receive it's IP address from DHCP?
If the answer to both these questions is Yes then that's what to do as a first step. Make sure the wifi modem DHCP service is disabled as it must NOT give out DHCP addresses.
Connect the ethernet port of the non wifi modem to one of the LAN ports of the wifi modem and NOT the DSL/WAN port. The wifi modem is not participating in any DSL connectivity at all so it's DSL light will remain off. The non wifi modem is doing the DSL duty so it's DSL light should be correctly illuminated.
What is giving you the 8 digit pin is it coming from the wireless router or wireless network provider ?
on your phone
To turn Wi-Fi on and connect to a wireless network
•
Drag down notification panel and touch
to access
Settings
.
•
Touch the switch
beside Wi-Fi to turn on/off Wi-Fi.
•
Touch
Wi-Fi
, the detailed information of detected Wi-Fi networks is displayed in the Wi-Fi
networks section.
•
Touch a Wi-Fi network to connect. If the network you selected is secured, you are required to enter
a password or other credentials (you may contact your network operator for details). When finished,
touch
Connect
Step one turn on PC directly connected to ModemsbSB6121 without Wi FI router being involved. Step two go to Command prompt type in ipconfig (press enter) Step three note IP address of default gateway and ip address issued to P.C.
Step four type in default gateway address into browser and log into Modem. Step five look for DHCP Server and allocate IP addresses from at least 50 for example 192.168.0.50 starting ip lease ending ip lease 192.168.0.254
Step six connect Wi Router to P.C. via ethernet cable only - remove ModemSB6121
Step Seven shutdown and restart p.c
Step Eight go to Command prompt type in ipconfig (press enter) Step Nine note IP address of default gateway and ip address issued to P.C. Step Ten type in default gateway address into browser and log into Wi Fi Router
Step Eleven Change IP address on Router to 2 as example 192.168.0.2. (it has to match in that modem device would have been 192,168.0.1)
(if it was 10.0.0.1 make wi fi 10.0.0.2 make sure subnet mask is the same like 255.255.255.0) Step twelve Change DHCP Server to off Step Thirteen may need to set default gateway to MODEM IP address for example 192.168.0.1 Step Fourteen plug modem router into Wi Fi router may need to plug into WAN port on WI FI router . Step Fifteen shutdown and Restart Computer Step Sixteen go to Command prompt type in ipconfig (press enter) Step Seventeen type in PING 192.168.0.1 (if this is modem IP address and default gateway IP addess)
All this above is to avoid IP address conflicts or mismatching
Subnet mask should be 255.255.255.0
either it uses 192.168.0.1 or it uses 10.0.0.1 make sure Wi FI router is set to different address to Modem Router.
I suspect either a clash occurs or your P.C gets a different IP range from ther WI FI DHCP server.
Happy troubleshooting !
When using a Wi-Fi network with your iPhone, you may occasionally encounter the following issues,Unable to locate or join a nearby Wi-Fi network,Weak or low Wi-Fi signal strength,Connected to Wi-Fi network, but unable to access the Internet. Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and then on again. Verify that you are in range of your Wi-Fi router or base station. Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and Cable/DSL modem are connected to power and turned on. Check whether other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet. Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware.
You must purchase a Wi-Fi adapter (possibly a USB Wi-Fi adapter) & follow the the adapter's installation instructions followed by inputting the modem's SSID & passphrase (if there is one). The SSID will probably show up in a list of available networks. Just follow the adapter's instructions. Refer to the modem's instructions for logon information (i.e., SSID, encryption type (if any), passphrase (if any), WPS PIN # (if any), etc.).
A Pin...this means that when you first connect you are sent to a special site, and you have to enter a pin on a web page? Or you have to have a special app to enter it?
Disable it, and use WPA security with a good (decent length, not dictionary based) pass phrase. Is the wire to your modem the insecure piece? Or the Wi-Fi that is accessible to someone in the adjacent street?
Unless your circumstances are odd, the wire to your modem is as secure as the interior of your home, while the wi-fi need to be well locked down. WPA2 with a good passphrase is as good as it gets. Well, using actual wires is faster, more secure and more reliable. But WPA or WPA2 is fairly good (WEP is fairly useless, it has been thoroughly cracked now and can be hacked with the right toolkit in a minute or two).
