Hey I recently posted about Network Hell and then got it fixed. But I switched my cable modem for dsl. If I plug directly into the network port on the back of my pc my internet works fine. If I try to use the uplink cable from my netgear router to the cable modem it says everything is fine but I get no connection it works fine for my cable modem but not the dsl modem.

they both use the dchp so I dont understand what could be wrong.

Any input would be great.

Thanks

Life is like a bolt of lighting...unless you make and impact you won't be noticed. And believe me if you kick that tiger in the a.s.s you better have a plan for its teeth.

Auto cablem modem worked fined but had to fine tune dsl modem for the router.

You need to configure your router for PPTP, enter your username and password in.
Cable doesn't require it.

Once you do that, you can uninstall any software your DSL provider gave you.
