Write to them explaining the problem (keeping copies of course), send the letter by recorded delivery. If they do blacklist you, at least you have the means to prove that you have made reasonable effo ...
To be fair, it worked ok with my laptop. But it was so picky about connecting to my phone line (which I always knew was ok), that I'm glad to wave it goodbye!
I'm sure if you've got a good one it wil ...
Finally switched from Orange to Sky, bloody Livebox would only ever work from the test socket, my main desktop pc would not keep a wireless connection for longer than half an hour despite being only 5 ...

You may also have to experiment with the different se ...
