A few days ago, my road was hit by lightning, when that happened the internet connection (NTL 4mb on Samsung STB) died, the tv still worked.
The engineer came out and replaced the stb, i went thorugh the normal thing of registering a computer etc, internet was working, then the connection was intermittently dying for 24 hours until this morning it finally died, I checked the router, i couldnt access the config page, tried rebooting stuff and all that i could think of, i then came to the conclusion that the router was dead, so i changed it for a new one, got it set up, all is fine, it even says it is connected to the internet but when i check the WAN stats, it says that my WAN ip is 10.101.106.* and i know this is right because all NTL addresses start with 81, and i have been trying to fix it all day, i am really confused, i have tried rebooting the STB, router pc and everything and i am really getting annoyed with it, maybe i need the STB changed agaib :mad:
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks in advance.

Just to clarify, I still can't access the internet
