SupraStar 3000 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Has anyone successfully managed to run AOL broadband wireless. The engineer told my g/f it cant be done. If you did, what did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I used to be on AOL wireless broadband with my ex, and that used to work without a problem. What seems to be the problem?! EDIT: But it was being 'run' through her Windows laptop, so I don't know if that makes a difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konrad Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Of course you can, you just need router with PPPoE protocol and possibility of cloning MAC address. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 At my dad's i setup AOL wirelessly using Netgear DG834 Router Simply plugged it in, did line detection then put AOL master screenname and password in...job done. Iny ISP's connection can be made wireless as far as i know, I dont think they can tell because at that point the router is Natt'ing surely to the ADSL router it is just being passed info by an IP address.
