#1 After you got the new netgear modem: Did you turn everything off and kept it off for at least 2 hours, before turning the stuff back on?
If not, then do that.
#2 What is the model of that netgear modem?

Thanks, dont think i turned system off for two hours. Netgear modem is adsl2 or dm111p,,,when i connect them, they cant find each other. I checked phone line and it works, but thats it. Verizon cust service said the problem could be somewhere else. The online diaganostic i ran said my dsl was working, so im puzzled. Maybe there is a firewall issue?

#1 What online diaganostic, are you talking about?
#2 What software firewall is on your computer?

Verizon website has a diagnostic screen that allows you to input your home phone # and it supposedly checks your dsl service and phone service. Re: firewall, i mentioned only because someone mentioned for me to check. I thought the new modem would work since its supposed to be compatible with the verizon service. Ive turned off the power and will be trying again to connect.
