Hi,
A friend of mine has just got Virgin broadband via cable and he had the whole lot fitted by Virgin, I think.
Anyway, he's clueless about computers and wants me to set up bittorrent on his PC.
I've tried asking him what modem/router he has but he hasn't a clue what he's got :) All he gave me was a model number: E08C007
My question is about how to open ports on his system:
Does anyone know if this E08C007 is just a modem (i.e doesn't have a firewall and so no need to open ports) or if it is a modem/router in which I will have to access the settings in order to open ports?
If the latter, does anyone ahve a link to an online manual?
Many thanks for your help.
