that ip addres will be behind a translation address, so dont really matter,
also the dns servers will be protected, again no use to a hacker, they only resolve addressres in basic

Good thinking old chap, its late

Claire, is there a log available on the router, that would be much more helpful.

PM me it if you haven't got a copy shortly as I need to go to kip and I shall help you tommorow.
I also need sleep badly, so i'll wire up the router again tomorrow after work and see what I can copy from it and pm it over.
Many thanks for your help so far guys, really hope I can get it sorted tmoz.

Then I phone c&w and shout at them , they then deny all knowledge. I then find the problem and tell them how to fix it because the company is made up of chimps in the majority.
