I believe the router came from R-Comp so he probably has a similair set up.

He now has it working by moving one? file from a backup of a couple of
months ago, though I'm not sure why. I think the problem may be that he is
DHCPing his IP address but seems to have other parts manualy entered e.g.
DNS.
