HOW TO CONNECT AND SHARE INTERNET THROUGH A WIRELESS MODEM WITH NORMAL MODEM? - febinkm - 04-28-2014 06:33 PM
I have a I-BALL Baton 300M MIMO triple wifi modem which can connect ADSL DSL and 2G/3G dongles, Now it found that my ADSL is not working. I got one TP Link ADSL2+ Modem Router
TD-8816 which has no wifi and the internet is connected to it successfully. Now i need to use that internet as wifi, for that i connected it to the wifi modem. But i cant access the internet through wifi/wifi modem, The internet works only when making wired connection with the adsl modem to the computer. when both the modems are connected i cant able to access the modem configuration add 192.168.1.1. From that i understand that i may be due to the ip address conflict, so i changed the ip of wifi modem to 192.168.1.2 then also the internet is not accesible through wifi, please help me

The best thing is to get a router do to modems can not talk to eachother

you need to do one of two things for that to work. One your using the wrong IP addressing scheme. They have to be two different networks. You simply changed it to an IP of the same network. That won't work because the second modem is using NAT and DHCP. Change the IP address of the second router to 192.168.2.1
The other option is to simply disable the routing/modem functions of the second modem. Then you would simply plug the regular ports, not the internet, from the first modem. This essentially turns your second modem into a wireless switch.

Did you actually "hook up" to the wi-fi? That is scan for the correct network, enter your password etc?
