Setting up wireless connection

Archived from groups: alt.internet.wireless (More info?)

I have an Alcatel Speed Touch Pro ethernet modem
I have an Belkin Internet Router.

I am having trouble shareing my connection with these pieces of equipment.

Can someone help me get this to work

Many thanks
Chris

This has nothing to do with wireless, but perhaps I can offer some
direction.

The Speed Touch Pro is a modem and router.
Therefore the Belkin router is redundant and not needed. I'll assume
it's the "Pro" model router, but double check. The left front of the
router should say "Speed touch Pro". If it's "Speed Touch Home", you
have a bridge, in which case the Belkin router will be needed.

See:
http://www.speedtouch.com/support.htm
for downloading the 284 page manual.

The basics: Plug your computah into the LAN port (you may need a
crossover cable). Plug your phone line into the WAN port. (I assume
you have microfilters or a splitter to isolate the DSL from the rest
of your phones). The Line Sync light should flash and then stabilized
to solid green. Open your web browser to:
http://10.0.0.138
and you'll end up on the configuration page. The precise setup and
configuration depends upon your undisclosed ISP and their manner of
authentication.
