I have 600k STB broadband connected to my PC using a Xover adaptor and Ehernet->USB dongle.
This works like a dream as it is but like many others, I wish to use a router so I can connect my Xbox and PS2 to their respective online gateways.
I have purchased a Linksys Etherfast cable compatible 4 port router and tried to get it all working (following the instructions to the letter)
I can't even seem to connect to the router using it's internal IP
something 168.1.1 if I recall correctly.
I'm set up to be assigned an IP dynamically (by the router?)
It is wired up as follows:
Ethernet out of STB into WAN input on router...Port 4 out of Router into a USB-> ethernet dongle and into my PC.
When I go back to the previous setup it works like a dream
Is there something i'm doing incorrectly:shrug:
ANy help greatfully recieved.
