THird Party Router with Actiontec GT704WG

Hello,
I have been trying to set this modem up with a router that i just got recently, Asus RT-N13U. I'm using the DD-WRT firmware with the Asus router. However I can't seem to get the Actiontec GT704WG to go into bridge mode. I have done the following and it doesn't work.
- Googled and according to Verizon the way to set the GT704WG to go into bridge mode is to set it to DCHP (http://www22.verizon.com/Support/Residential/internet/highspeed/networking/setup/actiontec704wg/1237...)
- Hit the apply button, let it return me back to the screen. Closed the browser window, shut off the modem, unplug the ethernet from modem which attaches to the computer.
- Plugged the ethernet from computer into the router and then set up for PPPoE with the Verizon Username and Password, the combo works, I've tried with the modem by itself.
- Unplugged the router.
- Plugged another ethernet from the modem's LAN port to the routers WAN port.
- Turned on the Modem, waited for both the power and DSL lights to be solid, still no internet light at this point.
- Turned on the router, then waited for the modem's internet light to come on and be a solid green.
At this point I'm pretty sure it should be working, but it doesn't, there is no internet connection.
So after I turn everything off I plug my computer back into the dsl modem directly and I'm back on the internet and the modem is back on PPPoE.
Can someone tell me if i'm doing something wrong or if the GT704WG just won't let me do "brdige mode"?

I have configured an Asus RT-N16 running Tomato USB to run behind the Actiontec.  There are many methods and configurations, depending on which Verizon services you want to maintain, which router you want to run as primary, etc.  The choices run from relatively simple to overly complicated.  I chose something in the middle.  You can study the options and methods on DSL Reports (via Google).  Unfortunately the DSL Reports server is down just now, but if you try in a day or so you will find all you want to know (and much more).  Good luck.
ADDED:  I have posted two photos of this setup on the forums ("my photos" section), but I don't immediately see how to link them here,

  • Is it possible to use a third party router with BT...

    Hi all,
    I currently have BT Infinity & Unlimited calls on my package, but I use a third party router, namely a Netgear WNR3500L in place of my original v2 Infinity Home Hub.
    Now, my question is this: Do I have to use a Home Hub with Vision, or would I be okay using my current setup?
    I do realise that if I use a third party router, I won't get support from BT.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How to extend a wifi network of third party router with TC 4th generation?

    After searching the communities for a while, I did not find a definitive answer on the following question:
    - I recently bought a 4th generation Time Capsule 2TB (MD0322/A), that I also want to use as an extension for our existing wifi network.
    - This wifi network is maintained by a Sitecom Wireless 300N XR Gigabit Router. Router is set to work over 2.4 GHz (B+G+N) because of several non-N-wifi devices in the network. The channel in use is currently 11.
    - This router provides so called WDS functionality, i.e. the ability for other wifi access points to act as a seamless extension of the basic wifi network (using the same SSID).
    - The security settings in the router are WPA2 Mixed, with a password in plain ASCII.
    - There seems to be no way to set different security levels for WDS-connections versus normal AP (access point) connections. If WDS is enabled, the security settings of the AP-mode are extended to the WDS connection.
    I have set the Sitecom router to enable WDS, and added the MAC-address of the TC in the configuration of this router.
    When configuring the Time Capsule, with Airport Utility 5.5.3, I can select the option to use TC to extend an existing network, and I can select the network of choice using the WPA personal or WPA/WPA personal security. However, the TC does not succeed in extending the network, and reports this back. If I manually configure the TC and select the network of choice, Airport Utility reports back that the selected network cannot be extended.
    I have read several times in other posts that Time Capsule can only connect to third party routers via WDS using WEP-authentication, but these posts were quite old. I was wondering if this is still the case, or that Apple has updated this functionality in newer versions of TC, and thus there could exist a trick to connect to a WDS using WPA.
    I really would appreciate suggestions

    Airport can not be used to extend a WiFi created by a non-Apple box.
    You need to turn off the radio in the router (shut down the existing WiFi).  Purchase TWO Airport Express units.  Connect one to the router with an Ethernet cable.  Configure that one as your primary WiFi network and then use the second Express as the extender.
    You need to locate the second Express where it receives a decent WiFi signal.  Too far away and it has nothing to extend.  Too close and it doesn't buy you anything.  Before you plug in the second Express, check to see where the primary WiFi disappears completely.  My personal WAG is that you want to locate the second Express 2/3 the distance to that point.
    If you use Airport Utility to configure the units, it's a snap.  In fact, if you configure the primary first and the extender second, AU will default to exactly the settings that you want.
    By the way, I refereed to the Express because it's less expensive than the Extreme and you didn't indicate any need for the Extreme features.

  • Connecting a third party router to accompany actiontec router?

    So I'm thinking about ordering a second router but I don't want to replace the actiontec router that Verizon supplied me, only because I don't have any clue what to do with my STB's so I'm going to leave the Actiontec specifically for that reason. I have the exact same setup with this exact router at my father's house and nothing seems to have gone wrong. Except that we hooked up an extra room specifically for the third party router. This time, I have nowhere for that to happen, so I was thinking about buying a moca bridge and plugging it in to an existing coaxial jack which another STB is plugged into. If I did this with the new router and simply gave only the one STB internet connection via Ethernet through the third party router, and left the rest on the actiontec, would it still work without messing anything up? Thank you.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I'm not exactly clear what it is you want to accomplish, but if I understand correctly that you want to have an Ethernet connection for a single device in another part of your house, a part of the house where there's an existing coax feed, then a MoCA adapater should do the trick for you.
    If indeed you're just trying to get that single Ethernet connection you won't need another router.  You can plug the Ethernet device directly into the output of the MoCA adapter.
    If you need more than one Ethernet connection after the MoCA adapter what you can use is a simple and inexpensive Ethernet switch.  Again, you don't need another router.
    The only case I can envision for needing a second router in your situaiton is if you want to use it to extend WiFi coverage, but just  for Ethernet connection(s) a second router is not needed and may be counter productive.

  • Pairing AX with Third Party Router

    Hi,
    I try to set a network by connecting AX with thrid party WiFi router (to create a router network). I can not manage to pair it as I wish, but I am aware that not all Third party router are able to connect with Airports and WDS.
    I try to pair with a Sitecom (WL-026)
    Do someone knows about AX -3rd Party comaptibility?
    Thanks
    Yann

    Since I'm not at home, I can't go into my AX config right now. However, is what you're suggesting quite easy (i.e., setting up my AX to connect to my NON-WDS supporting 3rd party P.O.C. router's network)?
    I am currently doing it the brute force way: two separate networks, one (3rd party) connected to the world, one (AX) connected to the stereo. This is all well and good except that I have no internet connectivity when I'm using the stereo. OK... not so well and good.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • HomeHub2 as Modem with Third Party Router, Securit...

    okay i've configured my Homehub to be set as a Router and conencted a Belkin G Plus Mimo router as the third party router, connection and everything is fine but theres on problem...
    security, there is no scurity protecting my wireless network which means everyone can access my network which is bad.
    when i try accessing the third party router (belkin router) i'm forwarded to the BT home hub control panel page...
    any help? i need protection on my wireless!
    Kind Regards, Bert

    Hi Bert,
    What you will need to do is manually change your Network Adaptor to an address in the 192.168.2.2-255 range. Set the gateway to 192.168.2.1 and try and access your third party router again. Then enable the DHCP Server on the LAN interface of your Belkin router.
    Don't forget that you have to be connecting through your Belkin router in order to use it properly like Computer - Belkin - Homehub, not Computer - Hub - Belkin otherwise it will just ignore the additional router (Belkin).
    You will also need to add a Static Route on the Belkin and set the Destination network to 192.168.1.0/24 and set the gateway to 192.168.1.254 in order to access the internet and Homehub. This will need to be set on the WAN interface.
    I hope this helps.

  • Connecting to third-party router, but unable to browse or e-mail

    I am using an Airport Extreme card in my PowerBook G4 running firmware version 405.1 (3.90.34.0.p18). Our office Wi-Fi access is through a third-party router. We used to use MAC address filtering, and I had no problem accessing the network.
    Recently, for reasons unclear to me, our IT director ditched the MAC address filtering in favor of the WPA-personal standard. I was able to enter the encryption key and get connected to the network, but I wasn't able to get my browser to access the internet, nor send or receive e-mail traffic.
    Our IT folks temporarily disabled all security and restarted the wireless router, but I was still only able to connect to the router, and not use my browser or e-mail, so it doesn't seem to be a problem with the use of WPA per se. I tried temporarily turning off my own firewall, too, but the problem remained.
    Oddly, I can open up the Terminal and Ping successfully to an outside address -- only http and e-mail traffic seems to be blocked. The Windows-based PCs seem to be able to connect to the wireless network and use their browsers to access the internet without any problem. Any thoughts as to what else I might try, or have the IT administrators try, to resolve the problem?
    Thanks,
    Sid

    Hello kilgores. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Something to ask your IT staff is if they use a proxy server for Internet access. If so, do they require proxy configuration scripts (.pac) to provide access to the Internet through your company's firewall. This information would normally be added to your browser's settings.

  • Configuration of third-party router

    Hello,
    I'm trying to configure a router in place of my BT Home Hub.  I am pretty sure it has to be PPPoE because it's ethernet out the back of the Home Hub.  I tried what was posted on these forums, I used [email protected] with 'bt' as the password.  However, the PPPoE connection just times out.
    One place I saw said I needed to configure a VLAN of 101.  No luck with or without a VPN.  
    All I ever get is a timeout.  If I plug the ethernet from the modem back into the BT Home Router, it works fine, so I know my line works.
    Some of the settings I can change in the third party router are:
    PPPoE Username
    PPPoE Password
    MTU/MRU
    VLAN (yes/no) and VLAN ID
    Encryption (yes/no)
    Mac Address (default or I can enter one)
    Do I need to power cycle the VDSL modem and leave it off for a period of time to get it it to forget the BT Home Hub?  I did try power cycling for maybe 5-10 seconds but to no avail.
    In the PPP log, all I ever see is PPP Timeout.
    Anyone have any idea how to get this working?

  • Integrating third party recruitment with SAP

    Hi folks,
    I had a question regarding intergrating the third party system with SAP HR masterdata. I am basically looking at transferring the applicant data from the Recruiting (third party tool ) system into SAP HR Masterdata. I found using the feature PAPLI something like integration could be done. I do not know how ???
    Right now, at the click of button something like Data transfer (entering the applicant id) can be manually imported into SAP Masterdata from the SAP recruiting module on the same system.
    Can such a process be achieived using  a third party tool? Is direct transfer process from the thrid party tool into SAP Employee Masterdata possible? Is the feature PAPLI (found from IMG) something like this can be accomplished?
    The version we are using is SAP 4.6C
    Any thoughts or leads in this area will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    SK

    I am not sure of any standard integration programs specific to recruitment, but through customization we can integrate third party rectt systems like People click, HRP etc.
    Develop inbound programs with ALE-IDOC system to transfer the data to Rectt tables.
    The switch will control activation of integration between the systems.
    If this helps, pl do reward.

  • Need connectivity of SAP Oracle with Third Party tool with dsn

    Hi Friends,
    We need to access SAP's Oracle database with third party tool with the help of dsn creation. For that we need to create 2 staging tables and need a new segment for these tables. Our data will move from SAP transactions to these 2 tables and we want to fetch this data via dsn into another third party S/W.
    I am unaware of such kind of working, can you please help me how to create new segment and how to create dsn for accessing tables in this segment.
    Our requirement is as follow.
    The staging tables are required in the SAP database with user name and password. The user should have all access to the staging table only.
    Requesting your kind help on this issue. Please suggest for further processing of activity.
    Rgds, Krishan Raheja.

    Hi,
    Common way to integrate SAP (database) with third party Application is to use and implement SAP Connector (Java or .Net).
    Using this, you can fetch the data from SAP database to use it in Third party application.
    As per my understanding the method you mentioned, will void the SAP database license term.
    So Please check before doing such configuraiton. Also that method is NOT recommended..

    photon counter is controlled

    How to i do this?

    Your question is too vague since you give no information as to this third party application. Is it an application you wrote? Is it an application that you cannot change? Does it have a programming interface? Can you eliminate this third-party application and control the photon counter yourself? Have you tried to do a search, as this question has come up before many times. For example:
