I think I'm on to something :-)
I have solved the problem by assign static IP addresses to both the
Controller and the Receiver, by using LOWER CASE MAC DIGITS ONLY!

In my Linksys DD-WRT router, this is done by using the Services section
"Additional DNSMasq Options" using syntax:
dhcp-host=[Lower case MAC],[Static IP]

I'm not a DHCP guru, but I think a combination of a particular DHCP
server and the DUET doesn't handle the MACs in the right way. It's
somehow getting it messed up. Maybe some Slim technicians can solve
this? (especially for those who dosen't use static IP's - they must be
lost)

All I know is that my DUET is now working flawlessly now, and I'm very
happy :-)
