All cables are correctly installed, I have an ADSL Line Cord connecting my set top box to my router. When I connect me laptop to the set top box with a standard ethernet cable the connection is fine.

NTL inform me they cannot give technical support on a router. Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong???




Thanks
Err, you cannot use ADSL with NTL Set Top Boxes.

IF the router has a standard Ethernet socket labelled WAN (or something similar), use that.

Edit: Just checked. It doesn't have a WAN Ethernet port. You will not be able to use it with your STB. Sorry... You will need a router that supports Cable (not DSL) connections, like the one at http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...204708-3343834
