I currently have a ORIGO 8400 4 Port Router and after 4 months it no longer will connect to the internet. The router works fine for LAN but it does not retrieve the WAN IP. I contacted my ISP and they said they do not offer any help with routers apart from the configuration settings. I checked all the settings and they are fine. I then contacted the Manufactuer - http://www.adsltech.com and they said to contact my ISP. So im going round and round in circles and i have no solution. Any Ideas?

If this router is the cause of the problems, can anyone recommend a good router for me. It needs to be compatible for the ISP Tiscali which is a BT line which is not Cable because people told me some routers are not compatible with certain ISP's.

Thanks for any advice and help.
