[OT] Virgin Media Cable BB install

["Tim" <tim@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for the OT post but I'm trying to assist a family member with
setup for cable BB - its remote and they are not very IT savvy.  It seems
that there is an IP conflict  between the new Netgear cable router and the
VM STB.  I don't know how these systems hang together - does the VM STB
have the gateway IP and the cable router points to this or does the cable
router act as the gateway./  The Netgear router has some smart setup
feature - would it be likely that this would get all the infor from teh STB
or would some manual stuff be require.

TBH if someone could let me lknow the internal IP address of their STB and
router I could probably figure it out.  The annoying thing is I was passing
on Friday evening and was told it wasn't convenient for me to drop by to
fit it - now I'm stuck trying to sort it from 150 miles away.

Brilliant!

TIA

Tim.
