...up the username and password for the PPoE connection?
Some electricity issue caused my phone line in one room to blow up, and the transparent box which connects to the phone has become black. But not the modem one.
I want to test the modem in someone else's house, do I have to reconfigure it or the broadband will hook up?
I have another phone line that is working in another room but when I connect the modem and the phone using the filter, the phone tone dippears. When I disconnect the modem, it comes back. When I connect the modem alone, it never connects to broadband (doesn't even try).
Any ideas on this too?
Thanks.

you just need to change the username and password.

change the filter, buy a new one. then try it on the other line.

I tried even without the filter, the modem doesn't try to connect. I will try with another modem tomorrow. I will also replace the phone cable that burned up.
By the way I have a netbook with a phone jack. Is this only for dial up?

If the house where you are trying to test the modem is subscribed with Ogero then your modem (or any unregistered modem for that matter) won't work.
If I am not mistaken, Ogero associates the modem's MAC address with the land line number. So only the guy's modem (with his MAC address) will work on his ogero DSL subscription telephone line.

I dont think so, if you setup another router with same user/pass it would work.

I couldn't do that test afterall, but testing with a spare modem in my house worked fine and the internet is back, so it's my modem that got affected by the electricity issue, although all its other parts work fine.
It was a good Linksys, RIP. I hope the TP-Link I'm using now is as good, but its interface is a bit cluttered.
Thanks for your help.
