Get.amped, thanks for all that. Busy night tonight and I'm not able to do justice to all that yet. I can certainly try and draw out my network in its component parts.
I've realised something else though about my Touch connections issues: (sorry for the length of this, but I can't see any way of cutting it short and still getting all the info. across.) Last night, when that Touch was causing problems, it was slow to connect to the network. When it did it wouldnt see LMS/Vortexbox, but would connect to MSB.com. At this stage the router had been up for quite a while - weeks probably. I then re-booted the router and fired up the Touch. At this stage it connected smoothly to both the network and LMS/VB. This player has (or should have) a static IP assigned, and even after a router re-boot, Id have expected it to reconnect to the router using that assigned IP address. However the interesting thing to me (and the point of the post) is that it was showing up with a different IP address - one within the routers DHCP range. So, does this suggest there is something wrong with the routers handling of IP assignation, or the way its dealing with static IP addresses. I now have two further "lost" Touches. Both are stuck at the stage where they can't connect to the network. Perhaps a further reboot is needed. Going to try that now. It makes me wonder, despite only being a few months old, if the DHCP server in the router is playing up? Thanks to anyone who sticks with this.
