    One thing that you could try is simply disconnecting before doing a router reset to default settings.

    Do you have a static IP or variable see here to get your IP address. If you don't have a static IP, disconnecting and leaving it for a while before reconnecting should give you a new IP address. The reason that this may help is that there have been various reports that certain ISP's have used new ranges of IP addresses that will not display certain odd websites. Worth a try anyway.

    I don't know whether mine is static or not. :o ISP is zen if that's any help.

    I can't understand how this was working one day and not the next. I have restored to when it was working but no luck. I have not altered anything.

    Generally most ISP's use variable IP's allocated from a pool and to get a static IP which always remains the same, you usually have to pay a small extra charge, however as ZEN is one of the best ISP's a static IP may be included. If you get a different IP when reconnecting after a short delay, you do not have a static IP. Other users on the net have reported that when they couldn't access a certain website, when they disconnected and were given a new different IP this cured the problem. Don't know if it would help in your case though, perhaps you could contact their "UK based customer service & technical support" with this problem.

    Interestingly the IP has remained the same but the remote port number has changed.

    Zen support is off line now but I'll ask them tomorrow if they have any advice.
