Arrrrrrrrrrrrrghh!

After a few months of happy wireless connectivity I am now having problems which I am unable to remedy.

One morning I switched all my equipment on and found I could not connect to my wireless network (this is the VM supplied Netgear router). When looking at the Network settings I was getting a 192.168.0.1 type IP rather than one beginning 82.

Tried my old Be ISP supplied Netgear router and same deal...

Sometimes I can connect when I renew the DCHP lease and I get an 82... address and am connected and able to surf away but this only happens when the router has been reset and all settings are vanilla. As soon as I get the VM config page and I rename the network and security details and save them I am back to self-assinged IP and renewing DCHP makes no difference.
Bit flumoxed TBH.

P.S.
I have spoken to a polite but useless individual on 150 who said he could see that I had connectivity and that there is no reason I should be experiencing problems. Oh, the problem is I am using a Mac ...

P.P.S. Will be happy to supply any additional info to aid troubleshooting. Cheers, Mike.
