Hey guys, this is my first post. i am at the end of my teather with BT, without sourced call centres. Heres my situation.

I am currently using a BT voyager 200 (wired modem/router) to connect to the internet.

I obtained a new BT voyager 2100 (both wired and wireless modem/router). I fort this would be simple swap but OMG how wrong was I!

The new modem/router ADSL light will refuse to synronise (the light keeps flashing and never stays constant) yet the old voyager 200 works perfectly.

Thinking that the new 2100 was at fault i took it to a few of my friends address and tried it with the same filter in the house and low and behold it works fine.

Many fone calls and line test later BT are dragging there heals. As I doubt v much they are gona have an engineer come out to me i was thinking would this be possible to take advantage of the wireless feature as thats all i really want: -

Can I use the originally wired model to connect to the broadband, of which i know works. then connect the originally modem/router to the modem/router that refuse to synronise and run the internet through that for the wireless feature.

Any help will be appreciated
 
Probably not, you would still have to configure the wireless modem/router to use at as a router and I think that these are USB devices and you wont have enough ports to link em up.

BTW BT support is crappy.

whats the problem with the 2100, can you explain more about what wont work and is it configured properly thorugh a browser etc?
 
thanks for your reply, bt support is terrible, can believe they sold out and outsourced.

The problem lays with the line as the router which is causing me problems works fine at my home address. Both routers are ethernet and the wireless router has 4 wired ports so i think something can be done. im gona back up my wired settings and have a play around.

Reach for the lazers
