which one did the ISP give you? the label should have the model number.
Its more than likely a modem/router combo device. And it causes a double nat.

Options? (only use 1)
1. put the netgears IP address into the ISP device's DMZ
2. put the ISP's device into modem only/passthrough mode
3. put the netgear in access point mode (half ruins the point of a gaming router)
