Whoops, that IP address should have read 192.168.1.253 - that particular IP
address seems to be the one associated specifically with the USB port.

I'll give it a try later on.  I presume the IP address is the one that
the router is configured to rather than specifically 192.168.0.253.
IIRC the Home Hub that I got came pre-configured to 192.168.1.254
although I changed this to fit in with my network.
