ADSL Modem

[Dutcho]

Got a adsl modem, the idea ws that if I plugged it into my netgear router then it would work better than ics and a lot of nics everytime I have to add another pc.

Ok router straight forward enough and works, but I have a strange problem with the modem where as you tpye http://10.0.0.2 to access it but 99% of the time if comes up page cannot be displayed... In fact I think I have only managed to access it twice in two days

If I cannot access it then I cannot configure it to connect to the line

Any Ideas please

are you using tcp/ip, only i've found if i put in say 192.168 etc (manual addy settings) it knocks out b/b sharing. If i detect auto it sees b/b but not network. Could b similar to your prob m8.

I have file sharing and BB all work Spot on, My problem is DC++ ect, need to forward ports so I ccan go active in hubs but the thing won't let me, well it does not work even when I forward ports so maybe the modem also needs to forward ports... ARHHHHHHHHH

Your machine that connects to b/b(adsl modem) direct - what protocols have you enabled on this machine that differ from the others???
