Mac Forum / Country Specific / UK Mac Group / May 2008Which Netgear is this?
<http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.202-7904.aspx> Anyone know? My WGR614 was about that price if I remember correctly. The GF needs one for her (Windows) laptop & I can't see them in PC world anymore.. Cheers ... Mark > <http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.202-7904.aspx> > > Anyone know? My WGR614 was about that price if I remember correctly.

Mark not quite sure but looks about right, okay dumb question GF is on cable yes? as thats a cable router. roger  Signaturewww.rogermerriman.com >> <http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.202-7904.aspx> >> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > > roger Sorry...yip - cable (Virgin). Have just seen it at sub-£30 on a couple of sites. But...I /do/ find it bloody annoying that a lot of times it doesn't show you the cost for postage until you've registered/moved to the checkout stage..! Cheers ...

The GF >needs one for her (Windows) laptop & I can't see them in PC world anymore.. The WGR614 is the only current netgear that has that feature set... so probably, yes. Ooh - quick question: Does it support having one end of a VPN on it? Cheers - Jaimie SignatureLove is a snowmobile racing across the tundra and then suddenly it flips over, pinning you underneath.

If you pop into the UI, does if have some screens labeled "VPN" where you can enter connection details? I'm assuming you still have yours up and running, btw.

[quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > >Not sure if I've changed something at some point...? You may have changed its IP address at some point. It'll probably be the router for whichever network interface is pointing at it, which you can check in Network Prefs. >Have to pop out now, but will check again later. Ta!

A quick Google on 'vpn' & 'wgr614v7' shows results which, I think, mean the answer to your question is...probably... 'yes' - *but* there might be issues with the (my) firmware (i.e. v7) you'll need to check...'tis over my head! :-) Cheers ...

I've also changed the username/password to....dunno! >It's not noted down anywhere - I can't get in... Doh! Always annoying. But if you haven't got any particular clever stuff set up, there's a reset button (don't do it just for me though!). >Sorry.

Both talk about VPN passthrough, which means that a computer on one side of it is connecting via VPN software to a computer on the other side of it. What I'm looking for is an ethernet router that'll handle one end of a VPN, because I want to do this: My computers and NAS-hosted backups VPN endpoint on my router (Netgear DG834) {teh Intarnets} ADSL Router at a friend's house VPN endpoint on my other router (trying to find one that'll do it) My other NAS box so I can have proper off-site backups.

[quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > stuff set up, there's a reset button (don't do it just for me > though!). Yeah. Bit reluctant to do that... I'm /fairly/ sure I did something with it, but...I'm at a bit of a loss to remember just what at the moment! >> Sorry.

Probably. Go into System Preferences > Network, and find the router address associated with the ethernet or wireless network (whichever one you're using). Then enter that into your web browser.
