Yep, thanks to input from Dave Walker this does appear to be the case. I'm 
simply following the instructions from the Cable people - and it seems to work. 
No LAN though :o(

I have ordered a new cable/ADSL router now - this one says it works with ADSL 
and CABLE so if I ever changre again, I should be ok. I can use the other 
router to extend my LAN once we get connected up properly.

Thanks to all for helping out here and apologies to all for the off topic-ness. 
However, I should hopefully get my office set up soon (when the router arrives) 
and once that is done, I can get back to writing assembly articles for outr 
esteemed magazine :o)

Cheers,
Norman.
