TBH I found Netgear a simple plug in and it worked exercise.
Slightly more effort when I came to add in the Linux using Assus but that only took a few minutes.
Best plan is to do nothing. Don't assume you need to do anything and the set-up (at least on Vi$ta ) is automatic. The only other person I know who has had problems with Netgear, read all the instructions, used the installation discs, kept referring to the "trouble shooting " guide and generally made a big deal out of it. When it didn't work came to me, as he knew I had Netgear, and asked for help. I simply pushed the reset button on the Netgear router and suggested we had a cup of tea whilst it reinstalled itself. End of problems.
