At the risk of stating the obvious to some - but in the interest of helping others , when I set up the Nokia to run a common Internet gateway on our small peer to peer LAN ( five machines ) - it didnt; work !
The solution however couldnt have been simpler - throw away the blue cable that came with the Nokia , and replace the (cable) connection from the M10 to the Hub ( as shown in the wee graph) with an ordinary network cable ..
The result - bingo !
