Weird Issue connecting to some gaming things, everything else is fine

[simonk]

Hi, so recently I've got a bit of a weird issue regarding accessing certain gaming related things.

If I connect straight to the modem everything works brilliantly, but I have no wireless, which I really need for my phone and other devices around the house, fire stick & what not.

If I hook into my router (BT Infinity Home Hub 2.0) and into the modem I can access everything in the browser just great, however I cannot open the league of legends client, or steam.

I've tried everything I can think of, anyone ever experience this? any solutions? I think my router has ran its course and i'll have to buy a new one

unbeleivable, found the solution 30 seconds after posting.

close this, sorry! lol. If anyone experiences something similar the solution was:

The Steam Support has already replied to me and it is now solved.

Heres the response to help anyone with the same issue:
"Exit Steam.
Click Start > Run (or Windows Key + R)
Type inetcpl.cpl and click OK.
Click the Connections tab.
Click the LAN settings button.

Note: You may want to write down the settings currently found in this window if you need to undo these steps later.

If any items on this window are checked, uncheck them.
Click OK to close any open windows and restart your computer.
Now, launch Steam and test the issue."

Hope it helps.
