I connected my Vu+ directly to the router instead of through a hub, it made no difference to my ability to update the software, it still needed a reflash. I started to reflash and setup from scratch but the boss wanted to watch TV!! I will do it over the weekend and let you know what happens. Rgds Frankblueking

PS DHCP was enabled so I disabled it but no discernable difference.
