Thanks for replying, already been through the instruction on that site -
doesn't even work if I bypass the router... Not sure it's the ISP tho,
(Virginmedia) why would they block incoming traffic on ALL ports????

Still scratching head....

Could the secret be Virgin Mediocre, they've been having some speed
problems for months, mine used to fluctuate between 1.5 meg and 19.5
meg.

Recently got a 108 Netgear router and the wireless speed wasn't as good
as the wired, can't check again as the 'puter is now upstairs in the
small bedroom away from the modem.

Just checked wireless and I'm getting half the 20 meg I'm paying for.

Virgin Media limit the speed between peak hours for heavy users, could that
be your problem?
