Hi
there aren't actually any settings that you can alter in your cable modem, certainly not to alter your IP address. (I believe you can alter the upstream channel on some of the older models, but that is all). The reason the posters above had theirs change was due to work NTL had been doing on the network.
If yours won't go on-line after a full re-boot of your modem & pc, then you'll have to call faults, I'm afraid, sorry.
