Title: Broadband Link - Error
Post by: joe on Mar 06, 2010, 08:15:09
I successfully link another PC, PURE Evoke Flow and Ipod Touch wirelessly to my 2Wire.

I tried yesterday to access the web from my Nokia N95 8Gb via the 2Wire. Both BTBroadbanHub-734  and BT Fusion were shown as being availaable. I chose the former and entered the relevant keyword.

This resulted in a web page from BT Broadband Office

BT Broadband Link -error  2nd router detected. Error a 3rd party router has been detected.....

Having given up and turned the phone off I could not access the web on my PC, each attempt brought forth the same web page. The situation returned to normal only after a period of some minutes.

Presumably this is to do with the 2Wire attempting to access BTBroadband rather than IDnet. Is there some setting I need to make to resolve this problem?

In the firewall settings, there is a tick box relating to detection of second routers. If you clear the tickbox all shiould be fine :)

Nope, Lance is right, turn off the 2nd router detection. I've seen that on my 2700 when I connected my N95 up via wireless. It seems to think the N95 is capable of routing, I suppose it could route between its WIFI and GSM connections but I'm surprised that in its default mode its detected as a router by the 2700.
