Right had this problem myself the other day took me longer than fitting dish and cable but got it going in the end!!
From what i could see the ip setting was not changing in network settings etc with either dhcp on or off what i did in the end was backup setting with usb stick reset to factory settings then reboot the box this cleared all the settings in box and then i was able to connect wireless this was with bt broadband!
Other box's ive had change normally but a few later just wont change they seem ok on virgin but maybe its a bt router thing try it!!!!
Good luck.Comment
