Using a 2wire 2701HG-G with TekTalk Service:
Grandstream ATAs will be unable to establish an internet connection when connected to a modem manufactured by 2wire 2701HG-G, assuming the default configuration is in use for both devices. What's causing this is due to a IP conflict as devices from these manufacturers typically have 192.168.2.1 being set as their default gateway. The only way to resolve this is to ensure both devices have different addresses for their default gateway. Instructions on how to resolve this can be found for each model below:
Original Firmware
Access the modem's interface via the address 192.168.2.1.
Login using the default credentials (admin as username and password), unless the user changed it.
Click on Home Network, located at the top of the page.
Click on Advanced settings, located under the "Internet Connection" icon at the top of the page.
Under the "Private Network" section, select Configure manually and update the following fields:
Router Address: Enter an address different than 192.168.2.1 as long it ends with ".1" (ex.: 192.168.3.1).
First DHCP Address: Enter the first IP address that can be assigned in the subnet (ex.: 192.168.3.2).
Last DHCP Address: Enter the last IP address that can be assigned in the subnet (ex.: 192.168.3.254).
Click on Save.
