1. Crashing on start-up
  
  Thanks very much for that BH. I will see if the router can be set up as you advise. I'm sure you are right about the IP address assignments as this trouble seems to have started after I had help setting up the range extender which involved another laptop being admitted to the router and the...

2. Crashing on start-up
  
  Sorry to raise this again but my Hummy has started crashing on startup, and I'm certainly not sure why. I still have the WD Mycloud NAS and I'm using a Netgear DG834 PN wireless router. I recently installed a Netgear EX 2700 range extender. Looking into my Hummy settings on the DNLA Server...

5. TV Signal pass-through?
  
  I used to be able to watch the TV without turning on the Humax. (Not sure if this was changed by installing the CF. May have been so with default firmware). I thought that when turned off, the Humax just passed through the aerial signal. Now, we get a "No Signal" display when selecting BBC1...
