Verizon DSL and WRT54GL

Jun 09, 2007 0 Replies

Hi all



I'll try and keep this brief. Any help would be greatly appreciated.



Friend leaves for Iraq i setup wireless network for him before he leaves as i have done for myself and others many times.



He has a Westell router/modem ASDL with verizon. I setup a WRT54GL w/ ddwrt v23sp2



Configured the linksys to use the verizon router/modem as a DHCP client. Gateway, DNS etc all handled via verizon router/modem.



Well it worked fine and i have read others doing this as well. It crapped out after a couple hrs.



We got on the phone w/ verizon service problems, no worries i think. Still doesn't work.



Do i need to spoof the MAC address of the verizon router/modem and configure PPPoe? Start DNS service on the linksys?



or what?



This has turned into the biggest pain ever
