Thanks for the guidance Ronni, I checked the settings on my other devices and they are all set to DHCP and they each have their own IPv4 Address. Therefore I am hopeful that the problem resided in the ethernet port connection. Give it a couple of days to stabilise and i'll let you know the outcome. Cheers Marcus Marcus Harris P.O.
