i don't quite get you. so you on fibre ?

internet link ?

if you are on PPPoE(ADSL) you need to configure PPPoE on your ESR9850

if you are on fibre simply (DHCP)

i really don't know how to interpret what you've typed.

pardon me for my inability to understand what you've typed

1 moment you state your are not on ADSL

the next you are reading on a configuration for ADSL...

confuse.

pardon me for my typo, i am on adsl

i tried to use the wizard using the engenius software to set up my router but i am still facing issues

and regarding the internet link what i meant was the the internet led light as shown in the picture, it will turn off after i bridge the 2wire modem/router

i know what's Internet LED.

don't have to show me the link.

my qns is not directed to "what is internet LED"

my qns is you are NOT clear

and my answer have been fed to u as above.

 

[MarineX]

Broadcom WLAN+BT BCM94313HMGB

capped at 72Mbps with this router. no choice.

the adapter is a 1x1 so don't expect too much out of it.

thanks marinex for ur time and advice! finally got the router up and running

anw i can't access my 2wire console now as i forgot to turn off my wireless

bridge = web ui dead.

so... if you want to change any settings, hard reset your 2wire

only when talk about $$$$ people will start avoiding it and solve issues - themselves.

epic.

hahaha oh no, so when i hard reset my 2wire i have to reconfigure my router again? guess i'll skip it

can i connect via direct lan connection from my pc to router to access the ui?

oh ya i don't giving you a token of appreciation, pm me ur bank a/c via pm

bought this router yesterday and have set it up... well almost. Everything works except for remote web management. It keeps asking for username and password even though i have provided the correct one. I have already checked enable remote management.

The username and password is definitely correct because i can login to the router web management in the lan.

Can any bro shed some light on this?

Oh well... thanks...

Incorrect. The disclaimer that describes the "Enable Routing" setting says that you can still access the Web UI, just that you need to connect via LAN cable, then manually set gateway (in TCP/IP) to 192.168.1.254 and set your computer's IP to 192.168.1.xxx (where xxx is anything but 254).

only when talk about $$$$ people will start avoiding it and solve issues - themselves.

epic.

People who come to forums to ask for help are beginning to solve their own problems le. You think they so eng come here purposely get suaned by you meh?
