Answer» I had my previous Aztech DSL600EU modem retired a few days ago. The modem was previously configured to go through the router for multi-PC connection. Now that I get a new Aztech DSL600E modem, I can connect to the internet through single PC manual dial-up, but cannot configure it from bridge to router mode. When I visit http:\\192.168.1.1 where the configuration should be done, after entering the Username=admin & Password=admin, and after clicking the LOG In button, it doesn't load the following page, just blank. Any solution? Thanks.Reset it, usually via a small button or pinhole at the back. Upon it's reboot, drop any software firewall and try accessing it now.Same. Still a blank page.Isn't http:\\192.168.1.1 for router configuration, not modem? To configure my D-Link router, I open my browser and type http:\\192.168.0.1 in the address box. I guess the actual number depends on the make and model of router.
Do you have the router connected now? Apparently not, unless you're online with another computer.
Was that modem provided to you by your ISP or did you buy it independent of your ISP? If you ISP provided it, I suggest you call their tech support to guide you through bridging the modem for use with the router.I bought the modem and router from computer shop. I'm currently connected directly to my modem, by-passing the router. I'm connectiing through manual dial-up. Aren't we have to configure the modem to carry out auto-dial-up before we can connect to the router/ Anyway I'll try again. Isn't the Aztech DSL600EU a combined modem/router?It has only one port in one port out. I have another 8 ports router to get another 4 PCs connected.
I follow the instruction in ftp://ftp.aztech.com/Malaysia/ADSL/DSL600E/DSL600E_bridge_routerv1.pdf but the problem is the page doesn't load after the initial log in page.Many DSL users, like me, use no "dial-up" procedure. If the modem is on - I normally leave it on all the time - then I'm online. If the modem is off, I merely turn it on and wait for it to detect the DSL line, as indicated by a solid green LED on the modem, and I'm online, assuming my router is also powered on.
Perhaps you have installed software from your ISP that emulates a dial-up modem. Do you normally have an icon in the system tray related to your modem? How do you normally "dial-up"? Right click on icon and select Connect, or what?Previously I'm doing it the way you describe, and that's after we configured the modem to do the auto-dialing RATHER than manual. And that's my problem with configuring the modem to do so. Now it can't dial automatically.As Backdated mentioned, it appears to be a combination modem/router, as indicated by http://www.aztech.com/prod_adsl_dsl600e.html. So, if you connect your 8-port router to it, you're actually connecting a router to a router. Does the DSL600E have ports on back for multiple computers? How many computers do you need to connect altogether?I think I was confused a bit before I check it out....the 8 ports DEVICE is actually a hub/switch, not router. So I'm actually trying to connect the modem to the switch and then to 5 PCs. The Aztech DSL600E modem has only one port.With a hub/switch involved, I think you may need to set up your network as shown at Ethernet Hub/Switch Network Diagram. As you can see, the Internet, i.e. modem, is connected to one computer, the Hub/Switch is connected to that computer, and the other computers are connected to the Hub/Switch. Obviously, this MEANS that one computer must on for the other computers have Internet access.Previously the network was not set up the way you described but it still work.
