Bingo!  That was the ticket.  Yeah it's a bit weird, we had two blocks
of five IPs allocated, the first was within our original subnet, the
second one came after and they were completely different.  Like you say,
I was trying to use the 205.97.38.47 IP with a bogus subnet for the
given gateway in Windows, which was actually resulting in a 'Connected'
interface (not a hung 'Acquiring address...' one as I originally
thought), just no network connectivity.

I've just tried using one of the IPs in the gateway's subnet and it
worked fine; wish I'd thought of trying that a day and a half ago.

Thanks to all those who replied and apologies for the noise.
