The wife got internet connection on some special deal via some company but essentially it is Chung Hwa.
They came and connected it to my desktop, and I had internet
Last week I bought a laptop and WLAN. I connected the WLAN to the ChungHwa ADSL box, and then back into my computer, so in theory I have a hardwired connection to my desktop and wireless to my laptop. The WLAN user manual says this is possible.
Laptop has no problem since I can connect to the neighbors WLANs
Anyway when I tried to connect to the internet from my desktop I could not connect and when I tried via Wireless (obviously) it did not work either. When I reconnected the desktop directly to the ADSL box I had internet
Two questions
- Is this what is happening and they can restrict the ADSL to only work with a specific computer?
- Is there any way to get around this?
