Thanks for replying. I had not tried that yet as the router was in use all day. I have tried it now. It came back and went into a state where it detected no 'attached devices' and neither of the two satellites - though the network itself worked fine. Hence I could not add any static IP addresses, though the add button did work (i.e. not bring up the HTTP 400 error).
However another button brought up a similar HTTP 500 Internal Server Error page.
I rebooted it all a second time and it came back to a fully working state.
So looks good for now, but I hope these issues aren't a sign of the end of the router life coming.
