I'm also having the problem with registration. Now I've found how to do it manually from this message board, I'll give it a go. However, at the moment I'm on a workstation at University and not on my home machine, and when I clicked on the autoreg.autoregister link above, it said "your browser issued a request that was denied by the registration server" - is this because I tried it from the University network, or is it because this service is now unavailable as well? Should it work if I try it from home?

Also, at home we're working on a wireless network, so rather than plug the cable modem into my PC with an ethernet cable, the modem is plugged into a Linksys broadband router with my computer accessing that via a wireless PCI card. Should it still work in that setup, or should I plug my computer directly into the modem?

To the guys who work for NTL - I welcome any help that you can give and I know you're probably absolutely sick of people asking you this question, but just to clarify, is it possible to offer any sort of timescale for the resolution of this problem? Are we talking days, or weeks?

Any help here would be much appreciated - the problem is extremely frustrating, and even more so now I've discovered it's been dragging on for two weeks. Thanks.
