Ok so mine should look like this

Re: Router set up help
 

Ok, I see the confusion now (and it's partly my fault - sorry).

When you set your manual connection up enter all of the details it asks for as they are on that screen shot, except the DNS addresses.

So you should have:

IP Address: 192.168.1.3
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1

Primary DNS: 192.168.4.100
Secondary DNS: 192.168.8.100

See if that helps.

Re: Router set up help
 

I entered that info, and it didnt work.

EDIT: why 192.168.1.3? I have 192.168.1.2

Re: Router set up help
 

Are you quoting the ntl DNS IPs?

They start with "194" not "192"

Re: Router set up help
 

Have you still got DHCP turned on in the router control panel?

Have you still got any DNS specified in the router control panel.

Have you diconnected form the connection and re-connected?

Re: Router set up help
 

Nope
Nope

Connection re establishes automatically

Re: Router set up help
 

Sorry, you know what....you're absolutely right - that's probably why it didn't work.

My bad, all I can say in my defence is that I'm very tired tonight :(

Matt's right Wayne, the addresses should start 194 not 192 - sorry :(

Re: Router set up help
 

Im not on NTL, im with AOL

Re: Router set up help
 

Does your router's admin interface have a page where it gives you connection info?

If so, it should tell you there what the DNS server addresses are.

e,g, here is mine:

(edited to remove IP & MAC etc. Also, my DNS servers are the ntl ones, as I use ntl. I don't know if you'd be able to use them for your connection or not - but you need to find what your own ones are anyway)

Re: Router set up help
 

I thought you'd got rid of AOL?

Re: Router set up help
 

No, i just dont have to use the browser anymore, in that case as its a dynamic IP addy, shall i set Windows to obtain automatically.

Re: Router set up help
 

No need, your router will obtain the newest IP address for you - all we need to do is get your PC talking to the router properly.

Try the new addresses I've posted above.

Re: Router set up help
 

Nope, heres what i enter:

IP Address: 192.168.1.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Deafult Gateway: 192.168.1.1

Primary DNS: As above in your post
Secondary DNS: As above in your post

Re: Router set up help
 

Ok, one last try:

dns-01.ns.aol.com

and

dns-02.ns.aol.com

If that doesn't work then you may just have to go back to letting Windows get one automatically from the router.

Re: Router set up help
 

Can you install a router with AOL?

mentions issues about AOL and NTL cable, but I recall Wayne has ADSL.

Wayne - Who is your ISP?
