When I try using snmpget with the wrong password (mine is not set to
public) I get:

$ snmpget ng public system.sysUpTime.0
Timeout: No Response from ng.

You are correct that snmp is on 161 (snmp-trap is 162 and that's stuff
that get sent to logs not the snp requests and responses). Double
check your password (same case et al) and make sure that the USR is
setup to allow snmp requests from your local LAN (usually a
192.168.x.x addr). Good Luck.

Oh, have you checked with USR?
