Cant Release / Renew IP Address.............!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi

I am having problems with getting an IP Address from the NTL DCHP servers.

It started on Sunday I was on the internet, it went off and still hasn't come back on.
I have reinstalled WinXP Pro and still can't install the BB setup software.

I have spoken to NTL and they say they need to visit to look at the box.

Is there nothing I can do at my end to try and resolve this problem ?

Thanks

Rich

Do you have a stand alone cable modem ?
