If you hadnt reset it from last time you used it and you are with the same ISP then it would still have the settings in David.
The only difference would be the wireless key, if they both had wi fi  :)

Lots of ISPs dont need a username and password now, as long as the PPPoA or PPPoE is set correctly and the 0,38 is in place they seem to be able to connect as the line is a dedicated one to your phone number I presume.

Who does the router say you are logged into, David?  Did you not use it at all when AA were fault finding?

I'll have to leave you in Sandra's capable hands, as I have to be up in the morning.

Night, David.  :wave:
