Model : CPE210

Hardware Version : 1.1

Firmware Version : 2.1.6 Build 20170908 Rel. 45233(5553)

ISP : Frontier


I just got Frontier DSL. It's IP is 192.168.254.254

So I set the CPL up as 192.168.254.111

I plug it in to the modem and it connects and looks like it's working when I log into the modems management page.

Problem is when I try and connect to the CPE wireless I get incorrect password. If I take protection off I get unable to join network.


Usually a router has a wan side and a lan side, when I set this up as AP it only has a network tab for the lan.

So I'm missing something I guess.

I had this one set up as a client before and it was doing ok but I'm switching to Frontier now.

The frontier is in a different building then where I need it so I'm using one CPE to send wireless and another to catch it.

Do I have to have my whole network on the .254.xxx net? I usually use 0.xxx.


Any help appreciated.

Thanks
