there's nothing to clik on, no 'blue words' viz: 
http://austek.net/pics/MRinternet_access.JPG

the modem does not connect to the internet, it just stays on 'connecting'.
I think maybe because it's programmed to only connect to MR, and the 
port on the NBN box only goes to TPG?

yes, as I just pull the lead from then TPG modem and plug it into the MR 
modem

had already tried that
