A "Modem" is designed only to work with one computer, But a "Router" is designed to work with multiple computers. So SHIRO is a router & also a modem. Infact any (boxy) thing your service provide provides you is a Router, not a Modem.
you can connect your Modem into a Router to share your connection, because a Router have multiple ports.
Now you will say that SHIRO or Others have only one port, so the answer is, that Modem supports multiple connection, so it may also work as a Router.
i told you 'one thing'

i dont know the answer of your question

Shiro Modem provided by PTCL is both an ADSL Modem and Router. It has option for one connection only but like any other Router it has native support for NAT (Network Access Translation i.e Assigning IP addresses and catering to the Inbound/Outbound requests of computers sharing that internet connection.) All you need to do is buy a 4 port or more KVM switch and plug your modem into it and connect other PC directly with the KVM Switch.

If it was only a modem then one will either have to put up a server that can provide IP addresses to other computers on the local area network or buy a router.
lol... read that again.... my words are weak but i said the same thing :D

You need to find out line parameters not connection status in that modem page. Crucial ones are Down Stream Line Attenuation and Down Stream Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR)/Margins... Find those values in that modem config. tool accessed by 192.168.1.1

I don't have a ZTE modem (I have a Shiro) otherwise I would have told you exact steps on where to find that info.

In Shiro Config Utility it's in Status>Modem Status.

Can you post a screen shot of that page?

Ideally
Line Attenuation should be lower than 15.
Margins/SNR should be higher than 25.

It seems your ONU/Distribution Point is too far from exchange (more than 3km and you have a copper telephone line) that's why you are getting bad performance/speed of PTCL DSL.

Don't bother with any other DSL service provider as I believe that your telephone line condition is causing slowdowns. LDN/Maxcom/Micronet won't help until unless your line condition (Margins/SNR & Attenuation gets better).

@Vyrus
DS Margine is calculated keeping in mind the value of your downstream rate and at the connection speed u have it should be >15 ( mine varies from 15-30). As of DS Line Attenuation, it should not be more than 45, if the connection is faster than 2Mbps it should be even less, the less the better.

Check this for good values : http://www.wiredpakistan.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=5157

U r not very clear in posting them so plz just post a screenshot of that page.


Now as for getting good values, tell me:
1) What Connection u subscribed for?

2) Do u know how far r u from the exchange?

3) Are u using a DSL filter?

4) If u r close enough to the exchange then most probably you have set up the phone lines in the wrong way like 80% of our Paki ppl.

5) Do u have an extension on your phone line?

6) U r on copper wire or ONU?

NOTE:
Plz post the screenshot of your modem status page & answer all the questions, otherwise i cant tell u anything, its just a waste of time :(

The ptcl guy who installed it said itll take 2 hours to get stable and blah blah .... Bottom line is, I THINK ptcl sucks .. Will wait till tom morning to see ....
Latency : 169
Download: 0.59mbps
Upload: 0.29 Mbps
Modem: ZTE
Phone Line Condition : PERFECT !

If he told u to wait for it to get stabled, it means he fkd u up :lol:
U really should have done ur research just like i did.

I applied for PTCL when i was on WC, waited for a whole freakin MONTH to get the fkd up PTCL connection, went to their exchange , met the dsl incharge and after seeing the fantastic attitude of these saints, i applied for LinkDotNet and got the connection in 6 days.


Then guess what happened????....After 2 months i got a call : " I am calling from P(huttu)TCL, you applied for the DSL package?"......I said :"Fk u BC" :D


So, u should have done ur research

its not like that yaar..... Haan you do need to change your own attitude while talking to those punks.
Play Politics with 'em :D & u are good to go.

@Vyrus.... just use it for one month will ya.
After that, beshak disconnect karwa dena. The real difficulty is that you dont know much about the current ZTE modem. Neither do I coz never used it before. A friend of mine also got the same Modem. He invited me in his house, but i didnt got the time to visit him, so never actually understood about this modem.
