It is all fine when I connect all the necessary wires from modem --> Router --> laptop, the internet and port light are solid green on the router, and I could ping both the router and an external site (bbc.co.uk). But once I try to use the setup wizard to set it up (I have no choice but to set it up as the router doesn't allow me to access any other site except the Netgear settings site), the internet and port lights from the router disappears, but the wireless light flashes!
I then lose all connection to the internet and LAN and can no longer ping the router and bbc.co.uk.

I can't offer any assistance though as I am still trying to find some help in my posting here "Can't set-up Router (WPN824 on NTL:250) HELP!!!", but it seems like our problems are similar.

I'll try the ipconfig all and will be watching this thread closely....

Don't use the setup wizard then? Just go in, set the wireless security etc and leave it.

Thanks !
Ah, but thats the connection to the router, not the internet. Is it giving out a i.p address? Is the data? light flashing on the modem. Will it work if you connect your pc directly to the modem?
