Thanks for the suggestions, its my own subnet at work, and I did try a couple of fixed address' that were free ( ping'ed etc to check not in use too ). Odd that I could get a connection with Emplode and start to sync but then would loose contact ( after about 20mb transfered ).
Guess I need to remember to take my serial cable in and see whats going on.
