Unlike ordinary routers, the signal source of the ADSL router is connected to the Line interface through the RJ-11 connector, so most ADSL routers do not have a WAN interface (see the figure on the right). There is also an enhanced product signal source connected through an RJ-11 connector, with 1 WAN interface and 3 Line interfaces. (Eg: TP-LINK TD-W89841N )
Use ADSL wireless router as LAN AP
ADSL wireless routers only have a Line interface as a signal source. If there is a local area network in the home or community, can I use an ADSL wireless router as a wireless AP? Generally speaking, it is possible. The basic method is to disable the DHCP service function of the ADSL router.
Taking ALCTEL's wireless routing as an example, if we connect the signal line to the physical interface 1 (Ethernet1) of the ADSL wireless router:
1. Select Ethernet1 of the group in the LAN configuration and configure it.
2. Select Obtain an IP address automatically and select "Disable DHCP service".
3. Save the settings and restart the router.
