If direct connection works fine, and the old router does connect (even if not reliably) it looks like something is incompatible with the ASUS router you are now trying, although what that might be is difficult to say. If everything on the router is set to auto detect it should work fine. It could even be as simple as the ethernet port on the router's WAN connection has failed.

The WAN settings from the ntl connection should all be automatic. If you are putting in IP addresses such as 192.168 you'll be confusing things.
