Oh man

Right...
  1. Reset Netgear, restarted Mac and rebooted the modem and router
  2. Am auto directed to Routerlogin.com and I change generic settings
  3. I attempt to login to router to acces 'Maintenance' menu but router does not accept the password that I just set so I try the generic one. Router does not accept it!
  4. I repeat the above with the same result. Unable to login to router with either changed or generic NG password.

Here is what I see in Network Settings



and DNS shows router IP




Connected via Ethernet all is well. See below




As ever thanks everyone for your help and patience!
