Getting NETGEAR Cable Modem Gateway CG3000D-2 to coexist with FRITZ!Box 7270
Hi Experts,
I have been running a FRITZ!Box 7270 as an ADSL modem, router etc.
I have just added a NETGEAR Cable Modem Gateway CG3000D-2 (because I have switched from ADSL to cable Broadband).
It's on a different subnet (192.168.0.x) to the FRITZ!Box (192.168.1.x)
These are the LAN Settings for the NETGEAR:
LAN IP Address: 192.168.0.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.
DHCP Server: No (was Yes, but I want to change it to No, so that the FRITZ!Box does DHCP)
I have tried changing the settings to:
LAN IP Address: 192.168.1.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.
DHCP Server: No
But when I click the Apply button, I get this error:
"LAN IP address and Guest LAN IP can't be in the same subnet"
What's the "Guest LAN IP"?
Regards,
Leigh

I solved the problem myself.
I actually have that setup here with DSL and Cable. I have several computers with two NIC cards, one connected to each device. They have to be setup so that only one of them has a 'gateway' defined because Windows will just get confused if you enable the gateways on both of them.
