	Thanks to all,
			I was back on site yesterday.  The FC6 box had not been shutdown
since last week but the router had been off.  Turned it on and it
connected straight away.  I ran neat to find that router address had
been added to both primary and secondary DNS and "BigPond" had been
added to DNS Search Path.

	I removed the DSL devices that I and adsl-setup created, restarted the
network and still all is well.

	All is working fine!

	Many thanks
	Simon Slater
