Two router problems

southernscouser

Ok the first one is;

I have a Sky wireless router (this one). However the ISP is now Plusnet. Is it possible to make the Sky router work on this ISP? If so, how? :undecided

Secondly, I have a wired router working fine to the PC, but is it also possible to add a wireless router (hopefully the Sky one) to the set up? Do I just have an adaptor coming out of the phone socket that will take the two leads from then routers? :undecided

Thanks in advance for you help.

Make and model?
It may be possible, you'd have to flash the firmware on the Sky router. But, for the sake of a tenner for a Netgear DG834G on eBay, hardly worth it unless you enjoy having a go-you may end up with a bricked router.
You don't want two routers, you just use the wireless one with an ethernet cable for the wired connection-your router should have at least two, maybe 4, ethernet ports.

If it's this model then reflash, in case of SKY bespoke stuff. It's then a matter of filling in the Plusnet information.

Post #3 describes it except swap Sky for your wired router.

it could also be a D-Link DSL-2640S, as the outer casings were the same. Haven't heard about a "standard" firmware for that one as yet......
