Live CD?

In reply to a post by RobertoS:

Have you tried a factory reset? That should set it back to immediately after the first flash you did.

I take it you mean hold reset for 10 seconds? Yes I have done this but can you confirm that it didn't need an internet connection to complete? The instructions on kitz suggest it does.
Also does that reset ALL settings back to default so any changes I made will be charged back?

Live CD?

Just looking for one

Just tried with a Linux boot. Booted from a CD into Linux just set up the wired connection to the modem.
Re flashed the gui firmware just like I did on windows.
Still can't access the web gui when it re boots

Seems that binding both LAN ports to WAN is a bad idea

Someone suggested entering 192.168.1.1 in the DNS settings on the windows laptop...

Think you're right BatBoy, just tried adding the IP address to DNS and tried it in the gateway non of it works.
Think I may have a door stop on my hands

I think it may work with the WAN connected to VDSL, but remove the DNS suggestion

Not sure I understand why but I will give it a go when I get chance.
Shame I was hoping there was a file that I could flash that would set it back to all defaults
Thanks all for the help anyway

The DNS suggestion was only to allow you to access the GUI. It doesn't have a DNS server.

Am I right in thinking you don't have VDSL yet?
