Try looking at the duplex settings of the NIC. If they are on auto, try setting to say 10mBit half duplex.
Appreciate the suggestion but would that prevent the CM obtaining an IP addy ?
The browser reports a DNS error.

Personally I think the SACM or the co-ax is u/s.

Watching the CM carefully the 'send' lights never flicker one jot ? The NIC is definitely talking to the CM, the NIC lights flicker constantly and the CM 'recv' light flickers.

ntl maintain they can 'see' this CM but that does not prove it is a two way comms ... or does it ?
