About 2hrs from you in Yorkshire.

It's funny because I've been speaking to a friend & he's having similar issues with the 169.254.x.x but he's with Sky though!

Hi Seph I can't use the linksys router at all, as when I type in 192.168.1.1 nothing happens. The only way I can get on the net is a Ethernet cable direct from modem to device. Once I plug from modem to router then router to device nothing happens.

I'm going to to try the original tplink router as this is the only one I can access the 192 page with.

Ok I've reconnected the original tplink router back up & somehow it's now working!!! but I want to use the new linksys I've just bought as I'm not 100% confident with the tplink anymore.
What is the best way to setup the linksys without messing things up.
