A simple power cycle of the router sorts the problem.

I THINK this may be related to ntl changing the ip address as when it happened yesterday, I noticed that the ip address had changed after I turned the router off then on.

I wonder if anyone else has this router and has noticed a similar problem?

Which IP address changed: your WAN address or machine address?
