Hi Timos,

Just noticed your post on my thread. I too have no hair left.

I upgraded the firmware to the latest (2.15 IIRC from netgear.com website), and have had a similar issue described by yourself.

I put it down to my idiot brother coming back from holiday and messing about on my PC whilst i was at work.
As you described, i entered the IP etc manually, got a connection then switched back to DHCP settings and it communicated with the STB again.

Has been working since, but i have read about similar probs to 'ours' on an american board about netgear products. Seems another firmware may be released soon.

Cheers anyway
Phil.
