    Sorry, Joe, just realised we didn't answer your question about what 'DSL synchronisation pending' means. I think it means that it's having trouble connecting to the phone line if it's going on too long. Check that the modem's plugged into the phone socket (or splitter) securely.
    Debt at highest: £6,290.72 (14.2.1999)
    Debt free success date: 14.8.2006 :j

    And that you are using a ADSL filter.

    Right, I've googled it and apparently there are no Vista compliant drivers for Speedtouch yet. What did you download and where from?

    I went to speedtouch.co.uk, then support, then 330 and then I clicked update for Windows Vista as advised by Primus.
