Netgear Setup DG-834

The router has a default IP address of 192.168.0.1, and browsing to http://192.168.0.1 over the network connection accesses the web configuration. The first thing the router will ask for is a username and password - which are admin and password. The recommended way to configure the router is via the set-up wizard.




Pressing the Next button results in the router auto detecting a PPPoA connection and determining the standard VPI/VCI of 0/38. At this point the hardest part of the set-up is typing in your username and password. There is an Idle Timeout field which by default is set to five. Unless you want the connection dropping out on you a lot then it is recommended to set a value of zero in this field.



Enter your ISP username and password I cannot see how it can be made much easier. The Test button will launch a pop-up browser window, which if everything is working will browse to http://www.netgear.com as a confidence check that everything is working. To store the settings simply click Apply.
