BT Broadband disappointment.

[Igorian]

Well we got a new computer. We've had a HELL of a time getting it all working, with two calls to BT in India, both of which have resolved our problems.

This morning however the computer and the Belkin wireless transmitter aren't talking to each other. When I look at the network connection it tells me it's firewalled. We downloaded AVG free last night, could this be the problem?

I have reconnected the computer to the BT Homehub with the cable for the time being.

It's possible your software firewall is preventing connection. I personally dislike them and prefer hardware methods. Try disabling it (or better still uninstalling) to see if it cures your problem
