Remember, you have to plug the external NIC into a Win or Mac box first and register it with ntlWorld before their DHCP servers will listen to you. The instructions for all that come in that big blue box they send you with the cable and everything.
And I believe you can only have ONE NIC registered with them too, so you might have to un-register any previously used NICs I found the simplest way (because I have no ISA slots in my Windows box for my old 3COM NICs) was to plug my hard disk into the Dachstein or Bering box and register the external NIC that way. I suppose technically you could install lynx on the LEAF box and do it with that. You might need a modern browser to do it. I wonder if somebody could right a script to do it? Is this a common problem for home cable LEAF users around the world?
