Guys, I think that I've found my problem - the Linksys router has a problem. Last night (or maybe it was early this morning!), I tried the old Belkin router again. It was up and running in 30 seconds. No additional configuration was necessary and I could surf the net both by LAN and wireless. Tonight, I will try again with the Linksys, but it's looking like that was the problem.

Thanks for the replies.

Aragorn - yes, when connected direct to the pc, I can surf the internet and the cable modem reports a valid IP address. The cables are connected as you describe and the cable modem has both lights on the right lit solidly. The cable modem status pages says it is locked.

Rob C - It is straight through and the old Samsung STB was straight through.

I'll let you know how I get on tonight, when I try again with the Linksys router.
