Hi I'm new here. I've done some searching the following thread brought
me here but didn't solve my problem.
http://tinyurl.com/2vhlr8 I tried
many things but can't get this netgear router to see my dsl connection
thru a westell 6100 modem.
I've tried both username & password login and not. I've tried setting
the westell to bridge mode-in fact every option in vc configuration
that was available. BTW in bridge mode the modem didn't seem to find an
internet connection itself-although proxy bridge did have the internet
light come on-but it wasn't a usable connection.
I have a connection-using it now thru ethernet cable. When I connect
the modem to the router sometimes both router and modem seem to be
communicating (lights flash) but I can't connect at all. ( I have tried
using a known good ethernet cable from the router to the computer in
other words not wifi-no go ) I've also tried spoofing the MAC
address-no cigar there either. Is there some clear and understandable
way to get the router to work or are these netgear routers garbage as
some searches have implied? Thanks in advance for any help/ideas.
