Weeeee! Zoooom! Pump was at fault. to connect Linux to NTL Broadband you need the following: DHClient or DHClient3 (pref the latter), NOT pump. CONFIG_PACKET=Y and CONFIG_FILTER=y in your kernel. I put this in the Tips,Tricks and Workarounds in the Wiki. That's it. It's simple enough, once you've been told. It was the kernel level stuff that stumped me! ;) Ricardo (Weeeeeeeeee!
