Setting up Cable Broadband with a Router
Don’t try to set up a new installation with the router connected between the cable modem and the PC.
A new installation has to be set-up and registered by running the set-up CD on a PC connected directly to the cable modem by an Ethernet or USB cable.
User names etc are requested by the set-up program.
Once the installation is up and running it is possible to insert a wireless router between the PC and modem, using Ethernet cable between modem and router and either Ethernet cable or wireless between router and PC(s).

Sometimes you will have to “spoof” the MAC address of the PC that the installation was set up with onto the router - see my tip: Broadband router not connecting to NTL
