Hello,

I appear to have the same problem as thechangingman. Spent two hours on the phone on Saturday trying to get bband to work through cable modem only to find that the IP address couldn't be renewed. Realised that my good lady wife would kill me if she couldn't play her browser games when she got back, so plugged the ethernet cable back in to the STB & it worked fine.

Can anyone confirm that this shouldn't be the case & the reason that that I can't get an IP address is because it's still going through the STB rather than the modem? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
