Apologies for the slow reply from my side to your posts. They are really helpful and I've printed them off to read and work though.
An unexpected bout of illness has meant I'm behind on this sorry but thought I'd best write to say it's not forgotten and will be worked through .... fingers crossed this coming weekend.
Thanks for taking the time with both posts and solutions and I will be back to you asap.
Sounds good. Take your time and get better. Have a good week.
Apologies for the delay getting back to you. Today I got chance to follow the steps you kindly sent and they worked like clockwork .... the reset, the rebuild and well, everything ... absolutely by the numbers.
I also followed your guide on the FW update and that also went perfectly, 100% perfectly. What a good way to spend a Sunday afternoon. I feared the worst but I need not have .... I now have a perfectly up top date system that I can actually access. I even bothered to do some proper device and cable labelling .... how many years has that been waiting to be done? đ
Many thanks for taking the time. the instructions and guides saved me a ton of time and pain. All the best
Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

First class advice and guess who had not even given that the slightest thought?
yes 100% will do that ... how many times do you just get something working and fail to do that good solid due diligence stuff? In my case, near every time .... but trying to break the habit of a lifetime and start doing this stuff right.
Thanks again .... has been a great technical day.
