Hi Mick
Thanks for responding to my question so quickly. While online I've done as
you suggested and opened IE7, clicked on "File" in the menu bar, clicked on
"Open" and then typed "10.1.1.1" into the address box, all I get is an
attempt by IE7 to open a webpage with the address
http://10.1.1.1/ so I'm
guessing that's not what you were asking me to do!!
Further explanation would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Stuart
