Dont run the test page from the netgear router,as this is buggy, half the time its incorrect in the firmware.
Other problems that could be occuring are
a) Make sure you are connected via the ethernet cable hat came with the router and not wireless, until you know your router is operational.
b) Make sure that your network card is set to obtain an IP automatically, as some people leave their IP's as manual, and therefore it points to the wrong gateway, and this means your internet will not work on the PC you are trying to access this. If you dont know how to do this PM me , and i'll explain, its very easy.
c) Make sure that the lights on the router are showing for ADSL LINE, and Internet, if only 1 light is on for ADSL line, it means that your authorisation is wrong, as you have entered the right settings. Also check that the MTU is not set too high, as on PPPoE, netgear defaults to 1500 MTU and this is too high, the max you can have is 1492, on netgear to fix this click on Advaned ADSL , but again if you dont know hot do do this PM me,
d) make sure that your username is exactly correct, its usually a letter and ur phone number e.g s344343344
and then your password case sensitive watever that may be, to ensure this works I would log into the qtel website e.g to check your web mail or dsl account to make sure all the credentials work or ask Qtel to reset your password which is usually qatar1234 etc
e) try doing a factory reset on yourrouter, this is don by the smalll tiny little reset button at the back you need to hold it in with a needle for 30 seconds, and then turn off the router and back on and then its factory reset, this genereally can resolve alot of problems.
f) If all of the above fail, add meto msn messenger [email protected], and I'll talk you thru things to get it working .
