Can you access the iplayer?
Do you have a DHCP server on the router?| Fri 23 Nov 2012 17:49:30 #2 | -

just checked router again is definately dhcp enableSomething is wrong - I would suggest you try again with DHCP, which if enabled should get you access to the iplayer which will confirm internet connectivity and access to a DNS server.
Does the PS3 and Laptop get addresses via DHCP?
