On Linux, I've set up the connection to be DHCP and the DHCP server to 10.185.6.139 (which I got from Windows). All I'm getting is time-out errors by dhclient (Mandrake 10.1). Is there any extra setting I need to be aware of on the NTL STB. Any help is greatly appreciated.
cheers
PS: I dont have any router in between. It is a straight connection from STB to PC.
PPS: I've originally posted this thread on NTL forum as this problem is specific to NTL and the good moderator there locked it! I can see the moderators are busy, but if they take a minute to read the content before locking threads, that would be very helpful.

Sorry

The thread was locked as it's a setup issue and not an NTL issue, personally I would have prefered it if the thread had been moved here but it wasn't. I'll go grab a link to the thread so people can read the full story so far and not go over things you have already tried.
Ok the original thread was here
