It must be a routing thing. I do not use Wifi (yet), the problem occurs over the USB cable. Maybe I should instead switch off Wifi, then hook up the USB cable and try again. I own the FR since only 2 days, so this is quite a new toy for me. I had it working the first evening, but I don't remember what all I had messed with the FR before to get there. *grin* Thanks for the reaction and the tip!
