UPDATE:
The below said procedure also works with other TP-Link Modems, Wireless router with modem and other brands if they support connection to Internet via Dynamic IP (as seen in Step 13 in the post below).
Personally i suggest checking the compatibility of the modem by browsing through the website of the Wireless Router Manufacturer.
For TP-Link they provide emulators of the most of their devices at

Hi Friends (its also for new people visiting this blog, new friends :) ),
A new post after a very long time,
This post is for people who is into hunt for instructions on using a wireless router with built-in ADSL Modem into it, otherwise called Wireless ADSL Router.
This is for people:
But when asked with the ISP Customer Care, they didn't provide enough information on switching to other devices than the one that is provided.
When after spending so much time on the internet hours together, with no resolution.
Having some enough knowledge on those router, i gave a try with Dlink DSL-2750U, it didn't connect.
Then tried with iBall Baton iB-LR6111A ADSL2+ Router, it did connect, but not in such a way to share it.
But, once found a person telling that he is using a device as such. It was TP-Link TD-W8951ND
With that information, i made a study on it, it's quite a good router, but doesn't meet my needs, so i planned for a little bit higher version.
I then found on TP-Link website that TP-Link TD-W8968
was a higher version of the above stated router, so i went for it and bought it.
The setup for Reliance Broadband on that router was so easy, i didn't had to break my head for it.
It took only around 2 minutes to setup the internet and i was so happy to see that i got connected to the internet :)
Let me tell the procedure to setup TP-Link TD-W8968 (also applies to similar models of TP-Link) for Reliance Broadband (Wireline Internet).
Important: Before using these devices, make sure that you logged off from the portal.
1. If it is a brand new router, connect the power, telephone line and the LAN cable to the router.
(If it has already been used, make sure you reset to the factory default settings).
2. Note down the IP address or URL, the username and password, in a paper or text editor, which is found on the bottom side of the router.
3. You can now place the router on the table in the normal position.
4. On your PC or laptop, make sure the Ethernet card or NIC settings are set to automatically obtain IP address.
5. Connect the other end of the LAN cable to your Laptop or PC.
6. Power on the router.
7. Wait for a few seconds for the router to boot up and assign an IP address for your connected system.
8. Open your favorite Web browser.
7. Enter the IP address or the URL that you have noted down in the URL bar.
(In my case, it is http://192.168.1.1)
8. A dialog box will pop up asking for the user credentials, you can enter the username and the password that was noted down earlier.
(In my case, username: admin ; password: admin)
9. After successful login, you will be shown the status page of the router. If you were unable to access this page, you are requested to verify with the details under the router, or with the router manual.
There are some default user credentials, you are also requested to try these.
username: admin
password: admin
username: admin
password: password
username: admin
password: <blank>
If still you were unable to access the page, you are requested to reset your router using the reset button, to know more on how to use the reset button on your router, please refer the user manual of the router.
10. In the main page, you will be provided with model number and the firmware version of the router
11. On the left hand side, there will be a pane with several option for setting the router.
12. You need to select, Network -> WAN Settings.
13. On selecting the above option, you will be provided with main screen as below:
You need to enter the following in the corresponding boxes
Under ATM Configuration
VPI: 0
VCI: 35
Under WAN Service Setup
Connection Type: Dynamic IP
Enable IPv4: Tick
Then click on the Save button below.
14. On saving this you will be taken to screen which shows your connection as below, waiting for a few seconds, you will be assigned an IP address by your ISP. And you will get the Connected Status.
For some security reasons, i had to hide the IP assigned to me.
Thats all for the internet,
The remaining setup of the wifi and password protecting your wifi part is left to you, as it is an easy thing to do.
Happy Browsing through the wifi and using all the wifi enabled devices simultaneously.
