dm111psp 2 menu not showing online to change settings
I read in the manul to set the modem as a bridge when its linked to a router. I didnt know till just a few minutes ago this modem is also a router. When i go online and use the username and pass to access the modem menu, i dont see any options that are listed in the manual. The interface looks like the one for my router and not the modem.
How on earth do i get to the modem inteface?
And then another question. Is this modem really a router too? so I could unhook my router and only use this? and will it wifi to my tv?
thank you, I just dont know about this stuff, as I had line of site and just one modem for years.

Yes, i understand how to do it, but i was unable to access the modems menu online to make the change. I finally disconnected the router and used only the modem and was able to access the menu and change it to modem only mode. However, it didnt work at all, nothing was being passed to the router once i put it back in the loop.
Then when i went to reset the modem back to router and modem, EVERY single time i tried to access it, i got a warning saying the administer was already online. After waiting, unpluggin it etc etc. I finally was able to access it and changed it back. and logged out. Hooked up the netgear router to it and still was unable to access the internet.
Talked to my ISP and thankfully they helped me get back online, even though it wasnt their modem/router. I was getting desparate because it was my Bday and i wanted to chat with everyone ;). While we did that again I was unable to access the modem menu because it said the administer was already online. I had no lease on the router, or where ever the heck that was. I thought you could reset the modem via the tiny hole in the back but you cannot. Still dont know how to reset it without gettin online with it.
I have not tried to get it to be just the bridge again. Didnt want to lose the web just now.
Thank you.
First of all, Happy Birthday! :)
Just to be clear, if the modem is on bridge, your router should be configured to be set on PPPoE. Otherwise, your router should be configured as DHCP.
What is the setting on your DM11PSP?
Are you also using a NETGEAR router? If yes, what's the model and version?
