so simple... always feel like a fool when its something so basic. i knew it would be.

I think that is quite possibly the issue, hard to be certain right now as the ISP seems to be having issues as well. But i ll definately let you/ every one know.

Just to be clear, when connecting to a router, we should use the public network setting? and a modem should be home?

thanks so much adrian, youve been brilliant. Really appreciative man!
Happy new year.
I'm 10/7 on the side.
