Firmware version?
> Does anyone know how to set it up?
I've never seen a Netgear router model where there's anything to set
up. It should just work. However, bugs in Netgear router firmware are
not uncommon. For example, this problem has been reported repeatedly in
the D7000v2:

Regarding the D7000v2, responses from Netgear "support" tend toward
"it's not supposed to work", but when your model appears in that KB
article, that claim might be tougher to maintain.
