It's just occured to me that maybe this had something to do with a laptop I had plugged into my router last night. I turned the Iyonix on after the laptop was on and the error appeared, where as the night before the Iyonix was already on, when the laptop was plugged in . The laptop is gone now and all seems OK, so could that have had something to do with it ? Maybe there was some sort of clash ? > is your iyo using static IP whilst others use DHCP.. with overlapping > address ranges?

But the sentence made no sense at all, there weren't even proper characters in one word. cheers Matthew -- Message sent from an IYONIX www.iyonix.com Using RISC OS 5 : RISC OS Open Ltd www.riscosopen.co.uk --- To alter your preferences or leave the group, visit //www.freelists.org/list/iyonix-support Other info via //www.freelists.org/webpage/iyonix-support List-related queries to iyonix-support-moderators@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
