Start > Run

Type 'command' in the run box

In the black box that appears, at the flashing cursor, type 'ipconfig'.

Look at the results, there should be one that says 'ip address'. This should start with 80, or 81, or 82.

Assuming this is the case, close the black box down and open up Internet Explorer. It will probably try to load a page and fail, that's ok. When it has failed, click into the address bar, delete what is there, and type the following:

80.5.178.26

This should take you to the ntl registration page. Select 'broadband', and follow the instructions on screen. Have your PIN number and surname as supplied on the welcome letter to hand.

The above does NOT require the CD, so remove that from the drive.
