hello everyone,
by mistake i bought tp-link tlmr3420 Hardware Version:MR3420 v2 00000000
its a wireless router that supports
cable modem(correct me if i'm wrong) as it has rj45 port and 4 lan ports
the problem is that i use adsl connection with rj11 connector.
Is there any method by which i can use adsl connection with my cable modem
without using additional adsl modem.Suggest some sort of adapter for rj11 connector to rj45.
thanks in advance.

This tp-link is not a modem, it needs an adsl or a cable modem to function. If you are using adsl, the ISP will supply the modem and this modem will have a RJ11 WAN port and one or more RJ45 LAN ports by which you can connect your tp-link. Oftentimes the adsl modem is a gateway, meaning modem+router combo, perhaps making your tp-link superfluous, unless you require the cellular feature.
