You are going to want to kick me!!! I want to kick me!!!!!

In the setup of the wireless router there is a box to select connection
to the internet. I has set it to adsl as that is what my connection is.
(Seemed prettyreasonable to me and there was no guidance in the
destructions) Anyway now that I've set it to NONE its all working
perfectly. Seems a bit cack handed to me but then if its not broke.....

Thanks forthe replies. I'll try to be a little more intelligent in the
future..
