Just don't use the "internet" uplink port on the Netgear - unless you actually want to create a separate IP network.

I've done that with a Netgear hanging off a Linksys. Having said that, I was just using the network ports, not a USB connected HDD.

To expand on what Saab has said, ensure the Netgear doesn't have the same IP address as the Sagem, but that it sits in the same subnet.

e.g. Sagem = 192.168.1.1/24 and Netgear = 192.168.1.2/24

Cheers,
Mike.
