Hi
I had previously tried this with a factory reset but experienced the same issues. I did notice the network connected, ip would pop up on display at random intervals but probably only every few hours not as often as the drive spin up.

If so I’ll need to disable or run another line as the rest of the network is already slower than this unit.
Thanks

Hello HuwSy
Factory Default and OS reinstall are different.
Could you please perform OS reinstall once and check again ?
Have a lovely day,

Factory Default is more than an OS Re-install. If a default didn't fix it, an OS re-install certainly won't. After the default, did you restore a saved configuration that may have restored the problem? Did you install any apps or enable ReadyCloud?
