Re: New Modem

I'm having connection troubles with Router, I've got my router running to pc from router port 1 with an ethernet cable, the connection keeps dropping though.

It's a linksys E2000 with VMNG300

Re: New Modem

you can see if you have got a connection with your router and going to the default ip address of 192.168.1.1 and seeing if it has got an external ip (I think mine startd with 82. without checking). Secondly, you can go to 192.168.100.1 and have a look at the modem config and see if it has locked onto the channels etc. I very much doubt any problems you have will be router related because Linksys are awesome

Damn!! Connection to PC is playing up again this morning, server not found in web browser.

But that little pic of the monitor and Ethernet lead in bottom right of screen says Internet access. Now and then the yellow icon is on there meaning no Internet access.

It's very frustrating.

But wireless is still working tried it on my iPhone. Seems to be the PC that's the problem connection is dropping in and out a lot.

I haven't got a clue what to do!!

No wifi signal was up.

After pc had been on about 5 minutes it started working, seems like it takes a few minutes to warm up, very strange.

The 2 Ethernet lights were light up green. Plus the other lights for Internet, wifi and power.

Yep that correct! I believe that VMNG300 Modem can do 120 Meg no problem

VMNG300 connected to Netgear DGND3700 will be in 1Gb LAN network. And the wi-fi (300+300Mbps) pretty good 104 Meg better than superhub.
