Wireless not working dg834g v3

hi all can you help me please i have a netgear dg834g v3 and i have had it for years im with aol and the WIRELESS is NOT working and not for a couple of years now. but it only does when i restore the router to factory default i can connect to it with everything laptops ect but i carnt then connect to the internet because i dont have the internet options but its too much fuss asking aol. so i was wondering if you can help without me having to restore it, now i have used all types of password protection types eg wep, wpa and also changing the channels but still nothing the only thing i can connect to it is my psp and i have the latest version and everything please help me cheers!!! :)

ps i do not know why it has suddenly stopped working

    Yes once i have rebooted my router it wont connect to the internet i think this is because aol have upgraded me onto faster broadband and told us to type in different options i dont know because i did not do this and i dont know how to reconnect to the internet. :(

    Hi there,

    I also got the problem with my ADSL router. Suddenly the wifi vanished. If I go to setting page I can't find the wifi settings menu. No wifi light up in the modem. Please help me to fix the problem. Thanks.
