I live in Bromley area & have ntl broadband IE7 Win XP & a linksys wireless router. Everything was working fine earlier today & for a while now, but since lunchtime I've had no connection to the net. Exlplorer is coming up with the standard can't connect screen, & the address is res://ieframe.dll/dnserror.htm in the bottom left as it fails to connect.

The wireless connection seems to be working perfectly, I've checked this from both my PC's. I also tried connecting via the STP to the laptop via a cable rather than using wireless just to double check it wasn't that at fault. I've also rebooted everything & checked the cables are in properly. We are getting cable TV no problem at all.

Anyone else having similar problems or is this one for NTL's customer services in the morning?

Also, just wondered if it's possible to set up an ntl dial up for situations like this so I could receive & send emails via my outlook express as normal rather than logging in via webmail?

Thanks
