I forgot the fact that earlier on today I upgraded the firmware to the latest, and this was the cause of the problem!
After running the Linux LiveCD, I still could get no connectivity, could not even access the router or modem's webservers, so I had a thought: what if I take the ethernet lead out of the router's socket and try one of the other 3, and when this presented me with "no connectivity" I suddenly remembered, so I downloaded the older firmware, reflashed and all is good and harmonious in the house again!
Tomorrow morning Belkin will have a bit of a surprise when they have a customer call up to complain about their "updated" firmware!
Thanks all for your patience with me, but a big thanks especially to Lsproc as he was the first to respond, and also to direct me to a new tool (LiveCD)
So my first impression of this help forum: very good, patient members!
Thank you all that took the time to reply so muuch!
