Does this change if you turn the PC on?
(Lights are usually static if you're doing nothing)

The lights are red, flashing ready. I will have to go back home to check whether it changes when computer goes on.

Have you checked the manual as to what the lights mean, red is often a problem....

You are connected to the internet, but at a really, really slow speed, so it may seem like the connection isn't even there.
Do you have a spare microfilter that you could try plugging into your master socket and then plug the router into that to see if you notice any improvement?

TP4 ADSL RDY and PWR. The manuel does not give any help on this.
Yes I think it is the same router, but mine is probably an older model.
I changed the microfilter and removed the phone socket.
I can't see how I am connected when my search page does not come up, just a blank white one. Sorry I am not very knowledgeable

What do you mean when you say that you removed the phone socket? The ideal broadband set up is like this:
Mstr socket ------ Microfilter ----- Broadband Router
----- Telephone
Let me know

Your router is definitely connecting to the internet - we can see that from this end.
Could you possibly try disabling any antivirus or firewall software that you use temporarily to see if you are then able to view any webpages?
I'd also recommend giving Tech Support a ring as these issues can be a little tricky to fix and less confusing if someone can talk you through things rather than going through forum posts.
