Andy, the sync and rdy lights are solid green. Throughout this I'm having no problems with my main machine (hence these posts).

The router has a reset button on the back, anyone reckon I should give that a go.

Thanks so far.

Simon..

Can you confirm that the router is connected to the CM, and the PC to the router...

The config you are getting implies that the main PC is connected to the CM, not the router..
(the 81.x.y.z address would the the IP assigned by NTL)

it should be :

CM ---(cat5)--> router WAN port

router LAN port <----cat 5 ---- PC (s)

HTH
