    Have you got an Eircom Netopia modem? If so you need to log in and lower the firewall. Low setting should be ok to leave it on but you will have to do it for every update if you raise it back up.

    To lower it just open a browser on any computer and put 192.168.1.254 in the address bar. You will see an option for the firewall on the left.
