HUAWEI HG 612 Modem.How to use Lan2 to feed local PC

[#1]

I did think that so tried 192.168.1.1 -(11).
No difference. I think the problem lies in the Modem because when I select anything other that 192.1681.1. the modem green led of Lan2 does not  show. Also I do not get the characteristics expected when I fo;;ow   the instructions when unpowering pressing and holding the reset and then powering the modem .
There  is definately something within the Modem that prevents it being got at which is different to the ones that respond to the hacking setup.

192.168.1.1 is the modems web server / gateway IP, you can not use that for a static IP on the laptop.
With the laptop connected to the modems port 2 and the modem switched on, open a command prompt and type the following command.
Please post the result.
ipconfig /all

That is a dynamic IP address assigned by the Technicolor router.
You must assign a static IP in the correct range before you can unlock the modem.
This may help

Many thanks for your time in sorting this, I much appreciate your efforts. OK I have unlocked the Modem and have changed the firmware to unlocked SP10. I have looked at the parameters but changed nothing as yet because I'm not sure what to do now.. I have connected the modem  to the TG582n Router via Lan1 this still works fine.The PC is addressed through the Lan port of the router .Now my whole reason to carry out this mod is to use the Lan2 of the Modem to access the web independently from Lan1 on the PC. What parameters do I have to change in the Modem setup please to achieve this please.
Regards Brian

Hi npr,
Set up as you described .The lan 2 port has internet functioning wth my adjacent PC .One snag is the Lan1 port does not now have internet. fed to the wireless router.(the router led is not lit therefore there is no wireless BB.
Have you any thoughts to this please
Regards Brian

The Huawei is now a modem router and doing DHCP for your network.
a) You need to connect to a ethernet port of the TG582n not the (red) ewan port. The TG582 now acts as a switch not a router
b) You need to disable DHCP in the TG582's GUI.

Its not turning out quite right. Before I had the Broadband lit on the Router (just no internet) now I have no Broadband lit.
>:(.
Soryy about this

[#11]

Ignore the lights.
You're not plugged in to the ewan socket so don't go through the routers internet interface so those lights will not work.
You're now only using the switch part of the router.
Make sure you've disabled DHCP in the router or you will have problems.

Hi npr,
The wireless router is working fine from Lan1 port of the Modem.
The PC has a connection from  Lan2and is showind the speed is fully 100mb but I think I have lost the plot in setting the ethernet adaptor the static or auto settings.Is still 192.168.1.100 & the gateway to 192.168.10 because I can't now connect to the internet. If you power down the modem is it likely to lose my preset parameters setup as described in your ealier post.?

[#13]

You only needed a staic IP while unlocking the modem.
Now change it to "obtain IP address automatically" then reboot the PC.

[#14]

I did think that,  so it is set to auto on the PC. What is strange though is the TG582 router works perfectly from Lan1 of the modem when plugged into the RED socket. and when the PC ethernet is in one of the Router sockets it too works. Its as though the Modem is not unlocked. I'm fully skilled in electronics but as you have guessed I'm not that clued up on the internals of the Modem & Router.
Yesterday I lost all my phones in the house.Plusnet have declared there is a fault in the exchange with the dial tone missing.Obviously the fibre and last 500 yds of copper is ok because the internet is working .I did think initially I would have some explaining to do to Open Reach if the broadband modem had done something to the exchange!!
