I have a zyxel prestige 2606hwl-61c which is a modem/router/Wireless AP with voip, vpn, nat, SPI firewall, etc.  capability.

Main PC is lan cabled to router. Second PC is wireless lan to other room. VOIP (call phones) and PSTN (recieve phones) and ADSL broadband (512/512k) are integrated. 

I need help to figure out these values for my router setup.

ATM QoS Type:

    Constant or Undetermined or Variable  (bitrate)



Cell Rate:

   Peak Cell Rate  cell/sec
   Sustain Cell Rate cell/sec
   Maximum Burst Size  


Nailed-Up Connection or Connect on Demand ?

Thx,

What about the bitrate, CBR UBR or VBR?    ???



I'm not having any luck, can someone help me out please?

I've got my "main" PC wired to my Zyxel 2602HWL-61C. Second PC is wireless off said router.

Can this work as a home network?

So far......

No connectivity between the 2 PC's though they can ping each other.

Both are accessing the web fine on ADSL thru the router/AP.

Firewalls are off, network wizard has had a real workout.

When I first set the machines up with the new wireless zyxel router, I had PCI wireless cards in both machines and also had a LAN cable connecting from the zyxel to the main PC. I had near perfect connectivity, and I could host IL2 forgotten battles rooms on Hyperlobby in that configuration.

The wireless connection on my main PC seemed to be causing intermittent 2-3 second freezes in my game, though clients did not report any disturbances on their end when I enquired. I was previously hosting same game room with dialup connection and had no freezes like this. My PC is powerful enough to handle the simulation without any struggle................ I asked others, and they said the wireless connection is no good for gaming,

I pulled the wireless card out of my main PC and connected by cable. I can join rooms now but totally lost any ability to host gaming rooms online, or to network locally.

Also, wired to router on my main PC, with no other PC on WLAN or LAN, I still cannot host, though hosted fine (except the slight freezes) with wireless card installed. Internet and client gaming works fine in this configuration also.

I'm beginning to think it's not possible in routing mode to do this. Do I need a bridge setup? Is it not possible to merge LAN and WLAN into the same network using the router?

Can someone suggest what may be happening? I've been on the problem for nearly a week now.

Addendum:

Port Forwarding was suggested and tried, but this brings me to a pertinent question....... with nothing other than basically default router and networking settings, I had it working "plug'n'play" out of the box.

Would being on a LAN instead of WLAN cause me to start having to forward ports?

I'm new to networking so feel free to spell it out! P

Hiya congo ....... I would suggest checking out my router tute in the Multiplayer forum... It has links to tutes for all the major router makes.

I would also suggest checking out any forums for the relevent games and any help pages provided by the game manufacturers.

Hope it helps
