This is at the request of Rick Moen who asked for this.
I was browsing some web pages I go to on a regular basis.
Suddenly the browsing slowed down and I was told that the
pages were not available After insisting that they were,
several times, what showed up was a graphic screen
showing a symbolic representation of my computer on the left
with arrows connecting to what should have the DSLextreme Server
in San Jose to the host server I had been accessing where the DSLextrene
server should have been was a graphic proclaiming Cloudflare.
I immediately went to my better browser and attempted to access the
router/WiFi and at first could not get in, my password was rejected.
I then did a reset on the device,
After I did the reset I was presented with a corrupted screen that
offered two
choices for configuration. When I clicked on either I was kicked out of the
page.
I switched off the router and tried again with it turned on.
Same negative results and I could get to no site.
So I gave up trying to get this Netgear DG834G v3 to work.
I called Jim and gave him the news.
