Hi,
I ordered KCorp Wireless Router (KLS6615) from CPC..
It has Ethernet Port whereas Tiscali has provided me Sagem ADSL Modem with USB cable..
KCorp Wireless Router does not have USB Port and ADSL Modem doesn't have Ethernet port..
I was trying to find out a connector with USB (Female) (Where ADSL Modem USB will fit) and Ethernet Jack (Male) which can fit in Wireless Router Ethernet Port.
Does anybody know any cheapest way wherein I can use my old ADSL Modem as well as new KCorp Wireless Router..
Thanks everybody..

You can't do what you are trying to do! Why didn't you order a router with a built in modem?:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0

That was the mistake on my part.
Anyways, router is damn cheap (£13 delivered) so not worrying much..
Still trying to find out if something can be done..
Thanks anyways..

To use your new KCorp Wireless Router, you will need a modem with an Ethernet port which you could probably pick up cheaply, something like a Voyager 210.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0

I found this on ebay:

I Think, USB (female) to RJ45(Male) is the one I can use for converting USB signal into RJ45...
Any thoughts?

As previously stated, it is not possible to connect the USB connector on a modem to an Ethernet port on your router, even if you have an adaptor. USB and Ethernet are incompatible, so your only option is a modem with an Ethernet port.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0
