Thanks Batboy but the leaflet makes no reference to adding a wireless to it, it works fine connected directly from netgear to pc, but not when i add the wireless belkin

In reply to a post by drexl_spivey:

I bought the Belkin seperate to that and it has 5 ports on the back, one saying connection to modem

Do not use that port

Try this:

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?

That PO Guide is nothing to do with adding a WAP. Anyway OP can already use the Netgear alone; he just wants to add in the Belkin as a WAP.

If you don't need to click on anything on your computer to connect to the internet, you're not using Dial-up Networking and thus the Netgear is acting as a router and not as a bridge.

Don't use any wizards or similar for setting up the Belkin.
All were are trying to do is use it as a simple Ethernet switch (albeit with one of the LAN interfaces as wireless instead of Ethernet). We don't want it to do any routing at all.

It's a lot to do with the modem or router question and how the PO have set things up though. Isn't it.

It says
Interface List
9 ..00 1a a0 99 cc f4 Intel 82562v-2 10/100 Network
1.............. software loopback Interface 1
8,...02 00 54 55 4e 01 ....Toredo Tunnelling Pseudo Interface
0 ..00 00 00 00 00 00 00 e0 Microsoft ISATAP Adaptor

v4 route table
Activer Routes : NOne
Persistent Routes : None

IPv6 route table
Activer Routes : NOne
Persistent Routes : None

Ok, that suggests the Belkin is either switched off or not connected to the PC

Hi, You need to set the Netgear DM111PSP router DHCP server range first at > Advanced Settings > LAN Setup.

you will find the instructions in Netgear DM111PSP manual on page 57 LAN Setup.

To change the LAN setup select > Advanced > LAN Setup

Configure as:

[Check] Use Router as DHCP Server

Starting IP Address 192 168 0 21
Ending IP Address 192 168 0 250

No, it hasn't! It just tells you how to wire it up, just like any old router; nothing about what's in it.

PO just call it a "Modem" cuz that's what Netgear call it in their top-level info, but that's not what their User Manual says and it does possess a DHCP.

OTOH you could think of it as a Modem cuz it has only 1 LAN port and no wireless so only 1 device can connect to it. But it does have Router functionality.
