Theres a bit of a barrage of people having connection problems ONLY via a router at the moment because of invalid subnet scopes being given out

If its a new problem despite nothing having been altered on the router and if the connection works fine if you plug directly into the modem then chances are it WILL fix the problem

But if the IP info being offered by telewest doesnt have different values in the second + third bytes of the IP to the second + third byte in the gateway then its a different fault obviously innit

Its written as a specific solution to a specific problem, because if someone DOESNT have the differing bytes then obviously it wont apply to them. If they do then it IS the workaround, so its worded as such

I hope that removes any confuddlication

Actually zing, apart from the header the main thread body shows very specific criteria for what this resolves, so how on earth could anyone who ACTUALLY reads the thread body think its offered as a solution for any fault?
