Just got me a Linksys EtherFast 4-Port Router, unwrapped it. Added the MAC addy which was on the back of the router to my account with blueyonder.

Used the install disk, it grabbed my internet settings then asked me to setup the router, which I did. It then configed the Router for me but when it came to accessing the Internet it said it couldnt do it (during setup). I have double checked everything, reset the modem about 50 times and run the setup.. even tried manual.

Modem and Router Leds are working fine, I assume that the MAC addy is taking some time to register? Blueyonder say it can take up to 24 hours but usually its always been instant for me.

Anything else it could be?

I hate linksys. I had the same one. I later got a d-link 604 and worked right, right out
of the box.

I would have thought it might be better to use clone mac address feature on the router.
Had my linksys up and running in 5 mins.
