    Cheers, I will get her to ring up for the super hub, but I have managed to get it sorted by using an ethernet cable from the cable router to the wireless router. Working fine now.

I thought I could plug in my ZyXEL NBG4615 and jobs a good un, but I noticed on the VM router there is a connection like a TV connector - so I guess I can't use the ZyXEL?

    Do I have to phone up VM and ask for one of there routers to go wireless?

    TIA
