By the way, there's more information (including direct phone numbers) for ntl:freedom at their website www.ntlfreedom.com 
EDIT: Scrap that, it seems they've finally merged Freedom with virgin.net. More info at the website above - but again, virgin.net provide a USB only modem by default - although I think you might be able to pay virgin.net for an Ethernet one... |
Thanks Jimbo....bit of an update spoke to one chap just now in NTL Freedom and he assured me that I could request an ethernet ADSL modem. I can see this turning into a farce already, as you say it's likely to be cheaper to just go an buy one (and to much less detriment to my sanity!)

Hijack away, sir. I'm interested to hear too.

Thank you for that. I would have thought for a similar cost I could get a new router and modem combined, but I like the idea of just stacking it with the router I've got already.
