Is 192.168.2.1 the Belkin?
Unplug the Belkin from the Netgear
Plug the PC into the Belkin and open a Command Prompt then enter route print 0.0.0.0
What does it say?

It is a ADSL2+ Modem Router! Nope.
It is a simple modem according to this page.
So isn't DHCP required on the Belkin as a result? And won't the Belkin have a WAN port that the ethernet feed should go to? Different 192.168 subnets being fine, as in an FTTC setup?
Dummy put router when he meant modem!

If my previous post is correct, the Belkin will need the login details.

I was previously using the Belkin in another house where i had virgin broadband. Was that Virgin cable? Has the Belkin got a WAN port?

With Virgin it was a different type of router as they use a cable rather than a phone line type connection
I bought the Belkin seperate to that and it has 5 ports on the back, one saying connection to modem, and the other 4 saying connections to computer

If my previous post is correct, the Belkin will need the login details. Not sure you are Bob.
PDF Manual says: When your ISP requires a login, these fields display:
Encapsulation. Encapsulation is a method for enclosing multiple protocols. PPP stands for Point-to-Point Protocol. The choices are PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) or PPPoA (PPP over ATM).
Login. The login name provided by your ISP. This is often an email address.
Password. The password that you use to log in to your ISP. [...] and: The LAN Setup screen allows configuration of LAN IP services such as DHCP and Routing Information Protocol (RIP). The modem is shipped preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side and to act as a DHCP server. [...] Although it would be helpful for the OP to confirm the modem is not acting as a bridge and they are not using 'Dial-up Networking' for their credentials.

That page says it's a modem.
So does this page: http://support.netgear.com/search/DM111PSP !
But the DM111PSP User Manual that leads from it says it's a ADSL2+ Modem Router and it possesses a DHCP (p4-2). QED!
