When i try to do the quick setup i am connecting the router directly from an adsl phone socket to the WAN socket on the router. It keeps saying that the WAN cable isn't connected. My old router was connected from the phone socket to a dsl socket. I have bought the right cable but no luck. Any help much appreciated.

Hi,

 

The TL-WR841N is a regular wireless router, no DSL port; the WAN port is an ethernet port, so it cannot work with the phone line. 

 

Instead, you need a DSL modem/router to work with it.

May it help.
