Hi

I set up a friends system AOL on a netgear 834gt modem router. It has been working fine for the last 2 weeks, now lights 2 and flash constantly and there is no internet connection.
Any help please.

    start, run,

    cmd

    ipconfig /release
    ipconfig /renew

    so you have 2 pcs plugged in? did you switch the router on before they booted?

    if you are talking about the numbered lights, ports 2 & 4 should only flash if something is plugged into them
