7800dxl & Sky fibre

Hello all, I've recently bought myself a 7800dxl to use with sky fibre.I set it up using the built in configuration wizard and I have access to the internet. However I have a few issues that I hope someone can help me with.

1. On my pc running Vista there is no connection to the internet showing in network connections, a red X is shown, but I do have access.

2. I have a couple of Airplay speakers and when they go into network standby the wireless connection to them is lost and they do not show up in iTunes or DHCP of the router.

3. On the status page of the router the upstream and downstream line rate shows 0.

Hopefully someone can help me, I'm not a complete noob with routers but I certainly wouldn't call myself an expert!!

1. Not sure about the Vista machine, I assume you have restarted the device? Also is this machine connecting via wireless or wired
2. What make and model is your Airplay speakers?
3. As the 7800DXL is not syncing with your VDSL line, the stats will not show (will only show if you syncing with a ADSL line)
