Atnex should be PPPoE...<br><br>You could call them. I've always had great service from their tech support guys (unlike a certain big business DSL provider that shall remain unnamed), they'll give you technical nitty gritty to help you troubleshoot, and have good knowledge of all the nuances of the different modems they've encountered.<br>
<br>I've personally never had to tweak my linksys router to work with Atnex, but I have a friend that uses a westell and a linksys w/ AT&T, and it decides to stop working every once in a while for no reason. I know statically defining the DNS server IPs worked once...<br>

wireless. So I went to my local STORE, and purchased a nice new Linksys<br>
Wireless N WRT160N.<br>
my current setup:<br>
Westell modem <bridged mode> Netgear setup with login info-> PCs<br>
<br>
when I try to setup the new Linksys router as ppoe, it fails to connect. When<br>
I set it up as DHCP, and change the modem back to login/password, my<br>
connection seems to time-out/go-away/die...<br>
SO... for the night, I am leaving my old router in place, so all my<br>
connections work, and I plugged the linksys into the netgear, and setup<br>
wireless for my wife:)<br>
<br>
I tried the wonderful CD that came with it. It takes forever to load up, and<br>
it goes away/not responding, and I never get to the part where it says to<br>
configure the router.<br>
I am able to get to the router via the web app- <a href="http://192.168.1.1" target="_blank">192.168.1.1</a> , I just don't see<br>
anything that jumps out at me as being wrong.. I can change the setup from<br>
DHCP to ppoe, l2tp, p2tp.... but ppoe doesn't connect, when I set it up the<br>
same as the netgear, with my login & password... connecting to Atlantic Nexus<br>
if that matters.<br>
