[plug] eee pc 4G and Netgear DG834G ADSL Wireless Modem/router

[David Dartnall]

Hi everybody,
It's a bit sad, I bought an eee 4G (701) at Arrow for 300 bucks just 
before seeing on Friday the  8G (702) advertised for 330 odd.
Ah well...
Anyway following recent discussion on the list I also bought a DG834G 
under the impression that it could be connected to one of my existing 
Netgear ADSL modem's RJ-45 ports to provide wireless to my eee (without 
using the modem section of the DG834G).
The idea was that because the routers with or without modems are 
similarly priced, if the original modem died I'd have a replacement.
My question now is, how should they be connected up? I'm not really 
fussy about replacing the original modem/router - not really sure of 
setting it up - and it works!
But that's obviously what I'll do if I've misunderstood how it's done. 
Maybe I should use a phone line splitter and use the new unit as it was 
designed?
I know it sounds silly, I could have hard wired the eee but (a) what's a 
laptop without mobility, and (b) son-in-law and daughter will be with us 
soon for a month, both with laptops and business to conduct, and they'll 
need wireless.
And I'll need to upgrade my isp a/c to accomodate them!

Regards to all, and thanks for any help
