  That is the right add-on.
  
  My recollection is that it is a "toggle" install - that won't show up on the services page. If you install it a second time, it will actually do an uninstall. If it's possible that you did that, then try installing it one more time.
  
  Also, you do need to change the admin password to something other than the default netgear1.
