Reviewed by Anonymous. Review Posted 18/02/2008

I have wasted 5 hours of my life trying to get this router to work with my VM connection. What I think the problem is is that the software thinks the IP address of my ISP is static when it can change. Also, it could not detect an IP address for my ISP automatically. I upgraded the firmware to the latest version and still no joy. The only bits of useful kit that came with it are the ethernet cable and the power supply. The hub itself is now being used as a door stop - works quite well at that.

NTL / Virgin Media Issues
Reviewed by Graeme. Review Posted 21/11/2007

Although I have given this product top marks, getting it working was not without issues. A friend set the same router up on his NTL cable modem and it worked perfectly first time. I was not so lucky and weeks later after calling Netgear, Virgin, networking friends and trawling on line forums I discovered the solution. I had to set the router up first, with the modem switched off, THEN boot the modem up. Contrary to all logic, advice in manuals and the smart wizard. It then detected all settings via dynamic DHCP, worked perfectly and has done so ever since. This has enabled my fiancee and I to share our broadband connection whenever we want and this router doesn't need a 'host' machine to be running for others to connect up to the 'net. There is no appreciable loss of bandwidth and connecting other machines to the router is as easy as plugging in an ethernet cable. Perfect!

Good kit - wrong application
Reviewed by John. Review Posted 06/06/2006

If you are looking for a modem and router - be aware this kit is NOT a modem - just a router.
I bought the DG632, which has 2 connections - ethernet and usb - as a modem and intended to use this as a router into the modem.
BEWARE! This router does not support PPPoA connections. The NetGear tech support (very good) told me to change it for a DG834 instead.
The DG632 I cannot fault - I recommend NetCear, but make sure you get the correct one.
