The router is connected to a switch via RJ45 cable. All other computers are connected via this switch including myself.
 
All the computers are Running XPPro/Home
 
Thankyou for any help you may be able to offer.

I know it's possible with a Linksys BEFSR41, try checking the documentation that came with the router.
 
You'll probably need to load the web-based firmware utility, which is usually done by typing the router's IP in the address bar of your browser. The default IP is usually 192.168.1.1
