Connecting a second xbox360

[speedloafer]

ok just got the router in the door, i dont have the username or password, im about to ring them though, im sure they have it

[speedloafer]

ok help needed
I rang sky, (not very helpful)
when setting up my router I get asked for the following:

This is on PPPoA (I think this is the right setting)

Username >
Password >
Re-type Password >
VPI / VCI > /
Encapsulation >
MTU >
Dial on Demand >
Idle Time (Minute) >
Use Static IP Address >

ok so for Username is it admin, and the Password sky?
The person on the phone said this is what is used.
I know the admin, sky is the default router login and pass but is this the right name and pass for this?

for vpi/vci I used 0/38
for Encapsulation > i have a choice of VC/MUX or LLC
MTU > is 1432 (This was the default number)
Dial on demand and Use static IP is left unchecked and Idle time is 0.

Any help would be brilliant.

Hi - I'm at work at the moment so I can't check my belkin but from memory the settings seem ok. Encap. is VC/MUX.

You do need, however, to extract your adsl username & password from your sky D834GT router - the username & password 'admin' & 'sky' are not your adsl username & password - these are just the username & password to access the web management interface on your sky router. These apply to all sky routers.

To extract your own unique adsl username & password locked into your sky router to set up the belkin, you need to use a utility program called mognuts. One of the site moderators (Saturday I think) provided me with a link to download mognuts. Unfortunately, I don't have the technical know-how to provide the link myself here but if you search my previous postings, hopefully you will come across Saturday's posting in reply to mine which provides the link.

Let me know how you get on and I'll try my best to help you all I can if you have any further probs.

ok excellent, got my username and pass from this http://192.168.0.1/netgear.cfg
while using the netgear. Bit strange the way they hide it, anyway im online now, havnt got the xboxs running yet, which is a better protection for wireless, wep or wpa radius or wpa psk?

Not sure about the security - WEP I think (longer key) but very glad you're now sorted mate

It shouldn't need any setting up, it should just work fine straight out of the box. Just plug it in and go (once you have put your Sky Username and password in of course).

ok. how do I do that?

[disco74]

ok. think I know what to do. Is the router ment to be any good? I have not used D-LINK before?
