Sonny – I only just read your forum article, there is Japanese company details if you need it also i recall once having a problem with P4 – I thought it dead for 9 months BUT just like a pregnancy – life came when I realised that it had actually defaulted to DHCP mode which was NOT what I was expecting as usually it goes to 192.168.10.2 and lo, I was able to use it again – I stopped experimenting after that !! mind you anybody know how to RESET a ws2000 please ? and yes I have Websuite available for the asking
