Have NTL got something that checks something or other at a quarter to the hour, and boots some people off whatever router they are connected to, making them find another one

No, because in order to change routers your entire area has to be physically relocated onto a new one, which is done a) rarely and b) in the middle of the night. You can get a new IP at any time, DHCP being DHCP, but in practice it shouldn't change that often. Are the two IPs in the same range?
If you PM me your modem's MAC address (better not be your BSD machine IP if it keeps changing) I'll check it again. I'm one of about two people in ntl with a FreeBSD 5 on the desk (probably)!
