Hi, I have a Netgear DG824M wireless router and this worked well when I had an ADSL connection in my old house.

I've now moved and I have Cable instead of ADSL broadband.

Thus, I can only put Cable into my DG824M as one of the ethernet inputs, not as an ADSL input.

What I want to do is connect to the Internet through all the wireless computers I have in my home. Strangely, some machines pick up a WAN IP straight away. Others only do after a large number of reboots of modem, router & PC. The default is just to connect to the LAN, which doesn't enable me to connect to the Internet.

Any ideas?

I can see that it's a long time since the question was asked but just in case anyone else comes across this and needs the matter cleared up I can state loudly and clearly NO it will not work. I phoned Netgear technical support and after a very long and eventually costly call they said it wasn't possible.
A bit ridiculous for Brits at least seeing as the switch between cable and Adsl isn't unheard of.

I can only quote for the DG834n because i've never heard of you router, But i would imagine there simlar. on the left pannl the is Basic settings change PPPOA to PPPOE..
