When I said off I meant standby, it wont go onto standby even! I have no home network to speak of and I really dont need or want one. It does go into stanby when I plug my single Ethernet cable (from modem) into the back of it but this needs to be plugged into my PC. I have no need or want to use the Touch on a network, I just want to use it as a stand alone player with a HDD. -- Dave (Northumberland) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dave (Northumberland)'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37753 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77810 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
