Thanks Mike

I did check this, and my PC and firewall both have 100/full set.

I noticed that there appears to be an excessive amount of errors (and
using Wireshark I can see a lot of retransmissions).  But why would this
only appear to affect the backup download?  I don't notice the same
problem when browsing the endian firewall admin site, or on internet access.

MAC/IP addresses have been altered...
