Two routers

Daknight

hi,
i have dsl 2mb bb with digiweb and
i just bought a netgear dg834pn adsl modem router,set it up on my computer with the digiweb modem connected but for some reason,the internet will only work on one or the other at any one time,it wont work on both at the same time,anyone know how to fix this?

Can you explain your setup better?

Do you mean that you try to have both DSL modems attached to the phone line at the same time? If so then you can't. You can only have one dsl modem per phone line.

yes thats what i am doing,maybe thats whats wrong but...when i tried just connecting the netgear adsl modem to the phone line,the internet was not picked up by the netgear modem,i did everything which it said in the manual whihc came with the netgear wireless modem but it doesnt work

Have you configured it with the same settings that your digiweb modem has (ip address, dns, dhcp, PPPoE settings etc)
