The is a possibility that another PC has the same MAC address and is on the same UBR, and it does happen even though each MAC address is supposed to be individual.

This will cause similar problems to this, and the only answer may be to replace your NIC which will give you a new MAC address.

IT does and can happen as I have had 2 fault calls with this problem and the above resolved it both times.
