I had a similar prob. I wouldnt really touch netgear myself. and i have had many bad experiences with SMC. My SMC router (wireless B) was giving me trouble, but now that i finally got it working as a wireless switch im happy! I have a Linksys BEF 4port 10/100 router uplinking to the SMC barricade wireless passing on the Linksys DHCP ips to the devices in the SMC. I never have any problems now with getting an IP form the it wirelessly because i disabld the DHCP in the SMC and taking the IPS directly formt he Linksys. IT works flawlessly. except when the cable connection goes down for maintenance.
