I have just bought a Sweex 4-port 10/100 Broadband Router and am having issues installing.

Previously there was a PC successfully connecting to the Internet through Telewest. When I run everything through the router instead, the IP addresses are not being configured automatically. I get a time out with ipconfig /renew (with ipconfig, I get no gateway and auto IP address with a 169 prefix).

What am I missing?
- am I meant to register the router with TW somehow?
