AOL vs NETGEAR
1. Set the MTU for your computer and the router to 1492 or less. Tweak it down some more if you have to.
2. Set the router to PPPoA.
3. Use autofix to detect and establish the connection (it's quicker but if don't work come back here).
Anyone trying to establish a network AOL software does not support internet connection sharing, you need to obtain a router such as the netgear et al and go via the LAN. The help files don't tell you this!!!
Have fun.
