I have just got the Netgear MR814v2 and had a few problems at the first
attempt setting it up. if you follow the instructions on the CD to the
letter it is fairy straightforward, but set it up using the LAN cable
first. The IP for the Netgear is
http://192.168.0.1 and the IP in my case
for LAN connected modem is
http://192.168.1.1
I had to do a couple of hard resets before I got it right! Don't try and set
the IP addresses up manually that really seemed to screw it up! mind you,
that wasn't helped by a BT support gentleman telling me to set all my IP
addresses manually? to check my broadband connection.
It is quite scary how many hours were wasted before I went back to basics
and reset everything and started again. Now all I need is my broadband back
and I will really see how it works!!
