    isp modem blocking router

    I bought a router but when I connect it to my ISP modem I don't get internet. I can also connect wireless to the router but I don't get internet either I am trying with Linksys wrt54gl and a wrt320n.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated for I want to set up the router for VPN but first I have to be able to get internet passing through the router

    try this Here’s how to fix the problem when your wireless router won’t connect to the Internet:

    1.) Connect your WiFi router to the computer that actually gets an Internet connection and unplug/disconnect your modem.

    2.) Find the MAC address of the computer that can make a successful direct connection to the Internet

    3.) After getting the MAC address write it down and open up your WiFi router admin.

    4.) Find the setting in the router’s admin panel which allows changing which MAC address to use; this setting will vary depending on your router manufacturer and model
    5.) Change the MAC address of that setting to the one you wrote down in step two

    6.) Apply the changes, then power down your router or unplug it

    7.) Reconnect your router to your modem and then connect the computer(s) respectively

    8.) After everything is connected, power on the modem (do not power it on until everything else is completed)

    9.) The Internet connection should now work on the PCs connected via Wifi

    The reason this trick works is because your ISP was blocking your MAC address used by that router. They can filter out MAC addresses on their end; if you connect a device that doesn’t have the allowed MAC address, they will not allow that device to get an IP address, thus no Internet connection.

    are you using the dd-wrt firmaware?

    then you can clone the pc address (ISP beleive the device is your PC)
    remeber to uncheck all firewall security and then disable it
    at this stage do not use any security for your wifi (when everything works you can enable it)
    are you using an IP address for you router not crashing with your modem or other devices? (try 192.168.1.6)

    hope it helps

    If you've used a modem bought on the black market from a technician or other person who has stolen from ISP (BELL) , he is able to follow and to disarm it. BELL proceed in this way with modems purchased from the black market especially HOME HUB 2000 regardless of which is the provider of the Internet if the provider use their network

    This means I have to set up the router as static?

    Hi Buba did you get this figured out? I know when I buy a new modem I have to register the modems mac address with the ISP. Have you done this already?
    My software has no bugs it develops random features.
