I have today fitted a Netgear DG834G for someone who uses Virgin.net
broadband. Despite being connected and reporting upstream and downstream
speeds + SN Ratio etc, the unit failed to CHAP, and aquire an IP dress
from
the server. Does anyone have a cure forr this? Surely its not a problem
using a DG834G with Virgin.net is it?

Thanks
Steve
