Not the firewall, the firmware. Firmware is something that makes components inside a machine/electrical item function correctly. Its like 'software' but not the type that you can open and use (like Internet Explorer or Microsoft Word).
Most routers have the ability to update this essential software, but occasionally it causes more problems than is worth.
Does your Dad take care of this stuff usually? If so, ask him if he has updated the routers firmware recently. He may be able to restore the original setup. If this doesn't work, you may have to try a completely different router. Some just arent compatible with Live.
I found my Belkin G+MIMO router works perfect, I only paid £30 for it too.
Hope I helped.
