is there a chance this could be a problem with the cable??? if the cable was damaged all the lights wouldnt come on, right???

The computer is running on a router which is running fine, but there is no IP address being assigned for the internet. We called to see if they had cut us off but she said no.

Any ideas????
I'm in Southampton (SO16) and am having the exact same problem.

my broadband has been intermitant since Monday afternoon. with my samsung digital box struggling to find a connection after a reboot.

my IP usually is 86.*.***.**, but on trying a repair in the Local Area Connection Support tab brings up a new IP (192.***.***.**) this ip then flashes between this and 0.0.0.0

I seem to have no problem with packets on the upload, download is a complete different matter.

Technical support have told me its a "fault in the area", but this was after speaking to the fourth Customer Sevice operator, so I've no idea if they we're trying to fob me off or not.
