thanks Stephen, i have now bonded the NIC's using ALB, that's working perfectly now, have access to 192.168.1.245 and \\mysight-cloud\.
it did break the vpn, i told the vpn to use bond0 - didn't work, then told it to use eth0, still didn't work, but then told it to use eth1 and It works,
thanks very much for your help, if its still working in a few days then i know i have definitely cracked it

Think I might have found the problem. I have it set to static for both cables that are plugged in. So eth0 is 192.168.1.245
Eth1 is 192.168.1.246
Been playing and it seems to be the router being the issue. I think. It is showing both in the list of connected devices. But if I click on the one that's eth0. It says 245 dhcp.
Other one eth1 says 246 static.
So under eth0 on my router it says always use same IP. I tick it and Apply. And then the IP address completely changes to something like 65 not 245 like the nas is static to. So I'm correctly contacting the provider of our router. It's a technicolor router. Not really keen on this router at tho mo.
I'll let you know if I manage to fix it. Or if any one has any info on this with this type of router then feel free to let me know.

Start by disconnecting the second cable for now. After you get reliable connectivity we can talk about NIC bonding.
You might need to reboot the router and then reboot the NAS to get the DHCP binding to stick.
