Foxy, just give me the F5D number thats on the bottom of the unit, as I dont trust websites most of the time (especially PCWorld or any of the DSG sites)

The Model number is slightly different than what your asking for: F6D4230-4 v1

Re: NTL Cable Modem & Belkin N150
 

okay...that is a router....... http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProdu...duct_Id=480884

connect your pc to it and browse to http://192.168.2.1 and give the router a full factory reset, then connect the modem to it and see if it works then.

Problem solved. Managed to get Virgin to send me a new VM Modem. Router worked straight away and am up and running with PC and Xbox. Posted this incase anybody has similar issue in future.

The modem you had is rubbish, I had similar problems when I changed from using the usb to the ethernet.
My modems ethernet light would also not come on & I mentioned the problem to the IT guy at work. He told me the ethernet port on these modems was problematic (he had the same one at home) & that if you wriggle the ethernet cable up & down the light will come on, he was right.
I had to jam a piece of card into the port which forced the cables contacts up against the ports contacts. I know of two other people who had the same bother, the best thing is to do what you did & get a new modem.

Hi

Same problem - Belkin replaced my router for a new more expensive N150+ which worked fine out of the box and has USB port to connect a USB hard drive on the LAN
