You wrote these down.
You need to input them into those boxes.
Here's a picture of mine:

Re: Router set up help
Ok, I see the confusion now (and it's partly my fault - sorry).
When you set your manual connection up enter all of the details it asks for as they are on that screen shot, except the DNS addresses.
So you should have:
IP Address: 192.168.1.3
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Primary DNS: 192.168.4.100
Secondary DNS: 192.168.8.100
See if that helps.

Re: Router set up help

EDIT: why 192.168.1.3? I have 192.168.1.2

Are you quoting the ntl DNS IPs?
They start with "194" not "192"

Re: Router set up help
Have you still got DHCP turned on in the router control panel?
Have you still got any DNS specified in the router control panel.
Have you diconnected form the connection and re-connected?

Sorry, you know what....you're absolutely right - that's probably why it didn't work.
My bad, all I can say in my defence is that I'm very tired tonight
Matt's right Wayne, the addresses should start 194 not 192 - sorry

Does your router's admin interface have a page where it gives you connection info?
If so, it should tell you there what the DNS server addresses are.
e,g, here is mine:
(edited to remove IP & MAC etc. Also, my DNS servers are the ntl ones, as I use ntl. I don't know if you'd be able to use them for your connection or not - but you need to find what your own ones are anyway)

No need, your router will obtain the newest IP address for you - all we need to do is get your PC talking to the router properly.
Try the new addresses I've posted above.

Re: Router set up help
Ok, one last try:
dns-01.ns.aol.com
and
dns-02.ns.aol.com
If that doesn't work then you may just have to go back to letting Windows get one automatically from the router.

Re: Router set up help
Can you install a router with AOL?
http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/article.php?a=74
mentions issues about AOL and NTL cable, but I recall Wayne has ADSL.
Wayne - Who is your ISP?
