Sign up with GooglePreviously Vox Telecom Technician helped me to setup my Billion BiPac 6200NXL to receive adsl connection from Billion BiPac 5200S RC in under ten minutes over the phone. Worked excellent.
Moved to a location where adsl was not an option, so didnt use the 5200RC for more than a year, but recently things changed and I decided to go with Afrihost as ISP.
Although I've spent about an hour in total on the phone with two Afrihost technicians, the setup with the modem and router is not working. Also requested setup details from Billion, received a one liner reply, to which I replied with extensive questions and havent received a reply on that yet.
So this is my last resort, is there anyone out there that has a Billion router and can help me with the setup please?
The 5200S RC is the ADSL modem with only one DSL port and one ethernet port.
The 6200NXL is the router that needs to distribute the ADSL over wifi.
The 5200 is working 100% on its own, but as soon as the 6200 is connected via the WAN port, internet connection is lost.
The ENCAPSULATION choices for the 5200 is:
a) Dynamic IP Address
b) Static IP Address
c) PPPoA
d) Bridge mode
And the first connection choice for the 6200 is:
a) Optain an IP address automatically
b) Fixed IP
c) PPP0A
If only I can know which combination is the correct setup I can try the different settings in the combinition,
but so I didnt manage to succeed.
In Bridge mode the Internet light on the 5200 goes red, and if I use the PPPoA choice for the 6200 the internet light on the 6200 goes green.
The internet works then in some terrible way where no pictures or videos is displayd and every website takes forever to open, but it is connected... with the wrong settings.
Would appreciate it if anyone can shed any light on the problem.
