Provisioning screen & wired router

[daveeb]

Hi guys n gals

when i am sent to the ntl provisioning logon screen (eg after a package change, stb change etc) are there any extra post registration steps when using a WIRED router. The reason i ask is that pre router i would simply reboot stb & pc and everything would be fine. Since i got the router, after rebooting after the provisioning screen i am sent back to the provisioning screen again. This has happened twice, first time an engineer was present and he kindly sorted it, second time i had to ring tech support who eventually seemd to sort it by geting me to uninstall/reinstall the network card. Am i missing a basic procedure here ?? maybe something to do with manually releasing & renewing the IP addy (don't really know what i'm talking about to be honest ). Many thanks if you can offer some advice

Normally it should just be the router that needs to be registered on that provisioning screen. I assume you have the WAN side of the router set on auto detect. Do you reboot both the router and STB?

Thanks for the fast reply Rob

Yes to the second question and i'm afraid i dont understand the first one

To be specific how do i check if it is set to autodetect
