my baby is a netgear DGN2200V4 N300 modem/router combo box running Custom firmware  UAMOD CFW info here: http://alfie.altervista.org/amod2200V4/

with Official netgear FW its okay but with this CFW you can open the SYSconfig menus and advanced settings netgear limits officially to its flagship devices... and these routers are a steal on ebay... got ours for only 12.02

EDIT SYSconfig menu found at 192.168.0.1:8082

Today I replaced my old Westell modem with a Netgear DM111PSpv2 dsl modem as recommended by the guy at the ATT store. Funny that they don't sell modems there, but I digress. I set it up in about 5 minutes and was online, no issues. However, now I can't access the 192.168.1.254 page so I am wondering what will happen if I ever need to call tech support. any thoughts? Thanks, JMac

if it's a Netgear modem, you can log in by typing http://www.routerlogin.net on your browser. Then type admin where it says admin, and type password where it asks you for a password and you'll get into the settings.

So if I have to call tech support for anything and tell them i have a netgear modem they will know to type that in? Or will i need to tell them to do it? Sometimes tech support is better than others. Although recently ATT sent me an email with this info in it.

I called this number a few days ago when i was having a little connectivity issue and it was a very pleasant experience.
