How to upgrade firmware on DM200 with WNR1000v3

[Geoff206]

Hello All,

I have a DSL Netgear modem (RM200) and want to upgrade its firmware.  I also have a Netgear wireless router (WNR1000V3).  When I go to routerlogin.net, I only see the wireless router.

The router is plugged into the modem and the computer is plugged into the router...

I have seen on other posts that you should be able to access the modem using 192.168.0.1, but that does not work for me. 

Any ideas?  Thanks for any help in advance!

   "routerlogin.net" (or one of its friends) generally works if you're
connected directly to the target gizmo.  Which you're not.

   Did you try "192.168.5.1"?

   Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation.  Get the User Manual.  Read.  (Or, look for
"192.168.".)
