Re: New STB Installation

Thanks Robin, I was hoping it would be this simple, but thought that the NTL bloke would have had to create a new connection using XP's wizard, as the PC he used was only set up to connect via a router, and had never had its mac address registered with NTL.

Alternatvely, could I just clone the MAC address he's used onto the router? I know it has this facility?

You may need a change of cable from x-over to straight through depending on model of your old STB and router.
It was a PACE box, and the router is the 4 port hardwired Linksys, BEFR41 if I remember correctly. Dont think I was using a x over cable?
