I don't think I did exactly that step (I tried so many things I lost track) but mainly used the Netgear-supplied install wizard which showed that the PC-modem (wired) connection was fine but that that point it reported it couldn't establish an ADSL connection. Ditto with the Belkin one, which gave an option in its install wizard to supply Talktalk/Tiscali details to it as well as my account details, which the modem accepted but then failed at the point it tried to establish ADSL connection. It listed a set of parameters (VCI, VPI, etc....) which all had values consistent with information I found on Talktalk's website.
