    Smile [resolved]-A simple networking problem

    Hello, This is probably dead obvious but i still don't know.
    I am currently using a linksys dsl/cable router on my cable broadband connection. i will be moving house and am getting adsl there. will the dsl router be compatible with adsl or will i have to buy a "ADSL spectific" Router?

    Very simple question i know.

    you should be able to use the same router but i cant tell you 4 sure because i dont know ur router or ISP.
    Tips:
    • Google is your friend! Search before posting!
    • Name your thread appropriately... "I Need Help" doesn't cut it!
    • Always post your code!!!! We can't read your mind!!! (well, at least most of us!)
    • Allways Include the Name and Line of the Exception (if one is occuring!)
    • If it is relevant state the version of Visual Studio/.Net Framwork you are using (2002/2003/2005)

    I will work, u just need to change the connection type to PPPoE and enter the username and password ur ISP gives you and basically ur all set. Btw, u dont need the ISP connection software (I kno my DSL provider has a "dial up" software to connect). I have a Linksys Router with 4 port switch.

    It worls great!
