Hi guys,
I tried very hard to get my router running but I cant figure out how.
I have started with the tuto here http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/netgear/dg834gt
Everything works well till the end but after that its impossible to access the router, neither on telnet nor http.
I, of course, tried the 3 firmware versions proposed.
Then i decided to break in through the back door: serial. I get a lot of lines that I frankly don't get at all but i can't type anything in the minicom console and same for hyperterminal.

Actually I said telnet but if there are other ways I take them.
How i tried to telnet the board:
plugged into my router: No new device connected.
plugged into my laptop with fix IP 192.168.1.100 and tried to telnet 192.168.1.1, I tried those because of the first lines of serial:
Board IP address : 192.168.1.1:ffffff00
Host IP address : 192.168.1.100
I also found another .bin on the INTERNET I made the image and flash but guess what... no result either.
I also tried to restore the netgear firmware and it worked.
Thanks,
Clement
