All other devices that connect to my zyxel p660hw d1 router connect to the router but do not get internet access. When connecting through my android phone I get message telling me to sign in to network that leads me to a router settings page saying that there is no dsl connection from the browser to the internet, while my newer laptop (2014) is using the internet from that same router.

A little older laptop can connect to the router but its the same, it says no internet access. The default gateway is usually something like 89.17.128.1 but occasionally its 192.168.1.1, which is when i´m able to access the settings page for the router. I have tried no security, wpa and wep but nothing will connect my older laptop or android devices to the internet.

Is there any logic to this? I have tried updating the router firmware but nothing seems to change anything...

Thanks in advance!
 
is your modem connected to the "wan" port?
needs to be hooked up to this port if available.

did you have the router connected to the modem when you set up your service or was your laptop the one hooked up to the modem when setting up service?
then you need to do something called "cloning mac address" from the laptop to the router sometimes.

Thank you for the answer, I simply connected the router to the optical fiber box using a lan cable before doing any of this, not really sure how to clone Mac address etc..
