Right, Windows update is really annoying me. It rarely works, often throwing up the error:

Error number: 0x80072EE7


It worked fine on our pay as you go dialup. Why not our broadband? :/

I'm guessing that means it's being firewalled somewhere...

It's either the router or the isp. However their tech support is staffed by the incompetent, so: any advice on what could be blocking it on the router? I've read something about MTU...what is it?

MTU is the maximum number of bytes that can exist in a packet
