well, the problem is that it won't let me connect using the router, when the pc is directly linked to the set top box there's no hassle, but when the router's in line, and i set up the network it just doesn't 'see' the internet. it's quite odd because it does try and load web pages but then times out, so it seems to think there's a connection there. sorry i can't be of more help, i have no experience of networking at all. the router i'm using is fine for networking, gaming etc with 4 computers. i'll try out some of the things you mentioned tonight and get back to you. thanks for your quick reply.

do you have any experience of usign the set top box as the internet access point?
