Well here I am on another router and... no redirect, clicksor ads or problems what so ever. So my router will be completely reset and taken back to factory settings when I'm home tomorrow evening. DNS will be flushed also. Hopefully will report back with some good news

Nice one, great you got it sorted :cool: :cool:

And how ironic after all the Mac-based chest-beating that the vector for the problem was the (probably Linux-based) router firmware.

Something about upgrading to the latest version of the firmware as well, Wez?  :lipsrsealed:
