Last thing I tried is I purchased an Netcomm NF4V route but I cannot
login in to configure it. Its status lights indicate ping packets

the router but it does not respond. It uses an IP address of
192.168,20.1, I suppose this does not work as it appears to be outside
the 256 item address range of a standard Debian setup. Although I have
been using Linux for a long time I have little experience on
networking
as I have never really run a network here, hence the problems.
Step 1: Configure your computer to be on the same network address
range
as your router's factory defaults.
Old way:
sudo ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.20.2
New way:
sudo ip addr add 192.168.20.2 dev eth0:0
Hope that helps!
Cheers,

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh................ the obvious approach!
I was so frustrated after days of playing with this I could not think
straight. It seems though there is few rural people running linux only
with satellite NBN and I do not these days really have the patience I
had in the past to grind through a configuration problem like this
Many thanks,
Lindsay
