Use a DSL with WiFi router as a LAN router

I needed a cheap and easy way to have a WiFi LAN. I buyed a old tcom speedport w500 DSL modem with wifi router for 2.5 Euro. This instructable is more pictures that text but it shud help you.

WARNING: YOU CANT GIVE YOUR LAPTOP INTERNET. For that you will need aditional software like a proxy server (Wingate, AnalogX Proxy Server, ...)

This works with all DSL modems with a LAN port and  WiFi support.

Step 1 Config your LAN settings

In start menu -> settings -> network connections

I bought a Belkin wireless router for US$70.00 and it is connected to my DSL modem. After I worked the settings it works like a charm. Thank you for posting. Great job!
