thanks for the advice so far.

going off at a tangent here, but i noticed someone on another thread talking about remote access. Is it possible to remotely access equipment hooked up to an NTL cable modem from elsewhere, e.g. pick up files or view a webcam. I'd assumed not without a static IP address and I've not asked for one (not sure if they are available from NTL?). If this is possible what happens if the modem drops its connection, could you restart it remotely?
