Last Mile router problem

minkynuts

I am connected to the internet by Last mile.com. I want to connect my satellite
receiver to the net as well but I have to connect the last mile cable to a router so as to have more than one feed, ie one feed to my PC and another to my Sat box. I have bought a TP-Link TL-MR 3420 3G router. can someone out there tell me what and how I put the right settings into this box so my PC and sat box connect to the internet

Step 1, Bring back the router to the shop...its the wrong one.
You need a cable router capeable of doing PPPoE.

Go to Argos and buy the router with item number 925/4709.

Yes, and if bought in Argos make sure you keep all packaging.
