I need to find out how to configure my router so it will work with my broadband dsl modem.
When I plug the ethernet cable from the modem into my NIC card, it works fine (I set it ti auto dectect IP and DNS)
When I try to plug the ethernet cable into the "INTERNET" port on my router, then another ethernet cable from my router to my NIC card, it won't work. When I do it tihis way I am providing the following TCP/IP info:
IP: 192.168.1.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.252
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Pref DNS: 206.81.128.1
Alt DNS: 204.147.80.5
This is per Microsoft support. They will not support troubleshooting a connection to a router, but they did provide the IP and other address info to get me started. Unfortunately the info provided above does not work. Browser says detecting proxy settings, but ultimately the page cannot be found.
Thanks,
Tom
