Moved to 'Computers & IT' (Routers are not an NTL network issue)

Hang on ... your PC should have an IP in the 192.xxx.xxx.xxx range because that is the internal IP range your router uses to establish a local area network in your home. (A Belkin router, for example, would give you 192.168.2.2 - other models will be similar but not necessarily exactly the same).

What you need to do is establish what IP address the router itself has got from NTL, and to do that you need to access the Router's configuration screen. On a Belkin this is 192.168.2.1. Others will be able to tell you the address of the config page for other models of router.

The main thing is, can you get web pages on your PC while you're wireless?
Please tell us exactly what make and model your router is, and what holes you have the various wires plugged into.
