Bulldog is ADSL and unless your mate is taking BB through a telephone line the router will not work with NTL/ TW which is DSL. What router model is it?

Ask your mate how he gets the BB feed to the PC, if a SACM (Stand alone cable modem) or STB (Set top box) is involved then he needs to get a DSL (cable) router.

Hi Paul telewest has put the internet connection downstairs because my mate didnt want any wholes in the wall upstairs[dont ask me why].His pc is going to remain upstairs,how do we configure the cable modem to send internet signal upstairs via the belkin router, is there something we need to input on the pc,btw he hasnt rung back yet to tell me the model of the router.

Bulldog have given you an ADSL modem, I'm guessing your mate has standard TW BB which is DSL. If that is the case you need to get a wireless DSL router. Once you have that, shut down the TW SACM, shut down PC, connect the router to the SACM, reboot SACM, wait for lights to lock/ settle, reboot router, wait for lights to lock/ settle, reboot PC.
