Anywho, I have the TV installed and there is an ethernet port on the back of the box.

I used to connect through my ntl box many years ago.

I just want to know, is it possible to get broadband through the new virgin set top boxes at all?

If no, then fine, I will have to wait for the new modem.

If yes, how do i go about setting it up? Cross over network cable? Any software from somewhere? Particular ip address etc? I plugged it in but it could not get an IP assigned.

SO, any help very very very much appreciated

Thanks in advance all!
