Hi Thanks - i wasn't expecting so prompt a reply!

Network Settings are: -
*General settings - Host name: Nas Ao-77-37, Workgroup: MSHOME
*DNS Settings - DNS1: 194.74.65.69, DNS2: 217.32.171.21, Domaine Name: (Blank)
*Mac Address e0:46:9a:a0:77:37, Status: up, IPv4 Assignment: "use the following IPv4 address" - with addresses typed in for Ipv4 address (192.168.1.2), subnet mask and default gateway
The ip addess for the router is 192.168.1.254...
The router does seem to have MAC filtering - i think. On its web page , both the port forwarding window and the firewall window each have two drop down lists: the first list is "applications" - which includes lots of computer game titles (presume for online gaming).
