Hello terry, I have finally got it to work by following Brian Jones suggestion to change the Domain Name Server (DNS) in my wireless router. It was previously set to the DNS automatically provided by my Internet Service Point which is talktalk. I changed it to the Google primary and secondary DNS of 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and it now all works fine. Best regards....
