Help Setting Up My Netgear Modem Router

[Kaido_RR]

im having a few issue with getting the netgear wireless modem router working! (im not sure if its the user or hardware )

Baiscly this is what i have done.

1.plug in all cords (phone line,power,network cable)

2.turn on the modem

3.went into net and type in http://192.168.0.1

now the 1st time i did this i was able to get into the setup of the modem etc but i ended not finishing the setup and closing it..

then i went back to do the same thing and i get a totally different menu when i type http://192.168.0.1, i try resetting the modem (pressing the button on the modem) and try using the cd that comes with the modem and still no luck!

baiscly what happens is the I light flashes on the modem (tring to find my adsl connection) and the menu i get into when i type 192... takes me to a page that goes NO ADSL SERVICE DETECTED, and it wont let me get back into the setup page to type in my password and username etc

what do i do?

i have taken 3 screenshots of what happens when i type in http://192.168.0.1

(it goes in order)

Thanks Michael

Ps the Modem is a Netgear DG834G v3

I am not much help, but I say if you can't set-up a netgear router, then you can't drive the interweb! I've had billion/d-link/belkin and netgear and the netgear was by far the easiest. took all of about 1 minute in total from in the box, to running my wireless network. so with that in mind, I'd say keep reading the instructions, or ring netgear.

yeah there is a reset button on the back, i try doing it a few times and doesnt seem to do anything at all just reset the lights on the front!

Why would not complete the setup?

Sounds a bit dumb to me.

Unplug it all.

Make sure there are no drivers installed on windows.

Restart your computer and try again.

Maybe consult your manual as to whether there is a way to reset the router back to factory settings.

Let us know how you go

abit late u fix the adsl connection yet? if not there should be a shortcut on ur desktop which will bring up the password screen, if not try reinstlling software cd... make sure all the phones / foxtel box (digital) have line filters this could disrupt the adsl causing it not to work. you could even disconnect phones and watever else on line and try running wizard hopefully the connection works. for further help try calling ur isp they will talk you through it!
