Hi,

Hi,
Spoke to the network chap at work after returning from our Xmas break.
He's pretty sure the problem is that I'm trying to use the yellow ethernet cable port on my router for both WAN and LAN networks. I kind of assumed that one cable could do both. He thinks the best fix would be to move the Router to the front of the house next to the modem which might be a problem getting wireless signal to all corner of the house, or turn off the R7000 DHCP and any other services I've got switched on there and turn them back on in the SuperHub, and use the R7000 for it's wireless functionality only (while making sure I don't turn on the Superhubs wireless adapter).
Can't do this for a day or two as need to explain to family that they need to redo all their network connects etc.
Will let you know if this fixes it.
