Anyway, I got him to read this thread and he agreed to swap it out for a 250, woohoo. We waited until the MAC address updated, had a quick test on msn to see if it could log in, success!

So, 2 minutes after he left, I started my FNR3 download again - 20 seconds later I got the same symptoms as before on the 250

Fortunately, a reboot has fixed it, phew. Speed test from Robin Walker is a little more eratic, but it's a lot more stable now and that can't be bad
