If it's the 2-Wire BT2700HGV Router MTU can be set here: http://home/xslt?PAGE=B05&THISPAGE=B04&NEXTPAGE=B05

If you're game for a small challenge, you could try eliminating the Microsoft from the equation by running Linux off a live CD.
There are lots to choose from.

I've used Puppy Linux and it was fairly simple to configure either wired or wireless connections.

It's a 128Mbyte download of the .iso CD image.

If you are on a static ip address it could be that the ip address is banned, that's why I asked. Of course if you had the same ip address before you moved then that would discount that theory. The reason I am going down this path is that you could access sites when you used the proxy.

My IP address has changed since the move so this could be a possability :)

To rule it out can you get BT to change it. If you explain the reasons they may be able to help.

For 2-Wire BT 2700HGV Business Hub (wireless router) then that's the URL for the setup page for MTU etc.
If the link doesn't work then it suggests that you don't have a 2700HGV.
The page looks like this - http://tinyurl.com/2u2qoqm - except that a BT supplied router shows BT not Qwest. :)
It's quite an interesting page as the links are live, so you can see all the standard user features.
Cheers, Peter

Just an update for you all.
Still waiting to hear from BT but yesterday a neighbours unsecured network became visible to me. The sign was weak but I managed to connect to it and was instantly able to browse all the secure websites that I cannot currently browse through BT

Hi
Really its a no no to use your neighbours unsecured wireless link ,unless you have permission. Warning him that his wireless link is not secure may be neighbourly ;D
