Hi there, im sorry to be the bearer of bad news but you have unfortunatly bought the wrong type of router for your connection. You need a Cable broadband Router, for NTL, but you have mistakenly bought an ADSL Router.

awww mann! gutted looks like its going to be another week untill its up and running then lol

Thanks For Reply

Hi there Lowery,

A simple router without an ADSL modem will be fine to connect to the cable modem.

Well it has a built in modem router it says on it ?? and that its also a ADSL Router ?? :S

With a cable connection, you're looking for something like this;
