    i connected my new belkin wireless router to my cable modem.
    the installation asked me what type of connection:
    Static IP
    Dynamic IP
    PPPoE
    PPTP
    i clicked 'Dynamic IP' but chorus ntl subsequently advised 'Static IP' (but didn't seem that familiar with the Q). it seems to be working fine - should i still reinstall etc? thx

    Why would you reinstall something that's working?
