OK...deep breath. Are we sitting comfortably?
Pinhole reset of VM supplied router.
Unplugged modem (with ethernet cable plugged in, other end plugged into Netgear router)
Unplugged router
Plugged in modem and waited for it to boot.
Plugged in router and waited for it to boot.
Could see 'virgin broadband' as an available network.
Connected and then clicked on random bookmark in Safari browser, this gets me to the VM 'Wireless Setup' page. Change wireless channel to '1' as another poster advised.
I name my network and assign a security password to it and the router, then I press 'Save'.
Browser closes down and I lose 'virgin broadband' but can see the renamed network. I connect to my renamed network...
'Airport is connected to 'Windmill' and has the IP address of 192.168.1.2.'
IPv4 Address: 192.168.1.2.
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Router: 192.168.1.1.
All good thus far. However...
In 'Network Status' Airport, Airport Settings, Network Settings and ISP have 'Green' (good status).
Internet and Server are on amber (not connected) and stay this way.
Cannot browse. Webpages timeout...SOS.
The Vaio laptop sees 'Windmill' and can connect but as above.

Right.
