Can I run two accounts on this router at the same time?

I want to run one international on once PC and a local on another PC at the same time. Is this possible with the Mega105?
 
Hey.

You sure can. How are you connecting at the moment? I assume you have the router set up with a permanent connection to the tubes and you connect to the router? The "INTERNET" light will be on...

Anyway, if you go to "Advanced" Then hover over "WAN" you will see the connection parameters that has been created on the router. Click on one of them and then click on "Disconnect". Do this for all the connections, you will then see the "INTERNET" light switches off once all acounts are diconnected.

Then you need to create PPPOE connections in windows/ nix.

In Windows you should create a new connection, choose connect to the internet, PPPOE connection, enter your username and password etc, you know, that whole process :)

You will obviously then create such an connection on each pc, on the one pc for international and on the other one for your local account.

Connect from theses accounts. I am not sure, but I think you can set it to connect if an application wants to connect to the tubes.

Good luck! Ask if you have any more questions.

PS. I wouldn't be suprised if someone on here has a way better way to do it :D If someone has, plz share... :D
;P
 
Thanks for the reply :)

I don't have ADSL at my new place yet and was looking at a Telkom package (I know :( ) combined with some local from Openweb. The Mega105 seems to have a decent price, so I just wanted to check if I can do the above before buying it.

Will PM you another question, thanks.
