Further to that. The router is now plugged in and running fine. Apart from
service network restart there was very little action required. The hostname
reverted to localhost.domain so /etc/hosts needed to be modified, and that was
that. I am impressed.
I did not bother to clone the MAC address. Using the router MAC allows for more
flexibility on the LAN side without bothering Telewest.
Thanks again for all the advice.
