I've got an account and the account is working, just need it through the new boxes

could be this one http://us.zyxel.com/products/model.php?indexcate=1085728827&indexcate1=1021877946&indexFlagvalue=1021873638

It isn't anything to do with USB as I remember to sort out all the wireless business I bought a all in one wireless thingy and it had to be ethernet

Yes thats ADSL (through a phone line)

Now do you have two devices to connect to the net? i.e. A router and a modem.

Or do you have one device a ADSL/MODEM thats what I am thinking you have. And I also think you will not be able to connect the new device to it.

But if the new device is also a ADSL/MODEM then that device should work on it's own.

If it is just a router then it will not work.

Also some VOIP providers can't be set up for use with some devices and only work using USB phones.

I only connect through this wireless through this one box. I assume it must be ADSL Modem. The VOIP box is a router and VOIP.

Have I purchased the wrong product...??

BritBrat

I think you need to go and look at what you have and if it's the correct hardware.

From here I can't be sure and it has taken us two pages to just get this far.

I suspect you don't have the right equipment.

This is what would work with ADSL (phone line)

VOIP adapter would work like a PAP2 if you have a 4 port router

What will not work:

Yes, I think you have got it lol
The modem is an ADSL / Router
New device is Router / VOIP

I need a ... ADSL Modem / VOIP ?

robert_harper_2000

lol it has been pain staking s l o w I know but ... I am grateful! So I think we know the equipment don't we? lol

What do I need ...

robert_harper_2000

OK OK I think I should let you go now.... again thanks for your help.

Perhaps I need to change the ADSL modem Router to ADSL MODEM. Would I still be able to sort out wireless thingy

robert_harper_2000

Thanks, hopefully speak to you again tomor lol

Goodnight

My gf isn't happy with me... BIG trouble with my modems and gf - can't help me with her too can you?

BritBrat

You need a device like a PAP2 if you have a ADSL MODEM/router at the moment with Ethernet ports.

You do not need another router.

OR

You need a ADSL modem with no router and connect your new device to that modem.

Or at least that is what I think you need.
