Thanks for the response Al!
No well I had no clear idea what it was, so I didn't specifically think of ports as the issue. However your description of the problem was the first i'd seen that matched my own.
It was only this evening after having this new router a couple of days that I realised that it was the router itself that was the problem. This when I noted my phone worked fine when it wasn't on wifi but using the phone network.
Laptops seem to work fine over wifi but the android iplayer app (video and audio) also the website through the browser in android and one other non BBC audio stream I use on the phone are no go.
Again all this is fine over the phone network.
This is the same for 3 different android phones in the household
