If you can't get to that page, go to the routers config page (which btw is http://192.168.1.1/ ) and check what ip address the router is getting. Does it start 10, 169, or something else?
Thanks Chris, I had registered the router with NTL (on the first phone call becaue I couldn't do it online) and the IP address was 192.168.1.1 through DHCP. There was also DNS 172.16.30.xx, so everything was looking OK but didn't work. So I had to undo the router and reset the cable direct from stb re register and here we are, online.
