Hello,

My apologies for not including the dmesg file, was unconsciously trying to reduce
bandwith presumably, anyway here it is along w/ output from some other files
viz:- routing table from netstat -r, LAN Configuration from ifconfig.

I was looking for conflicts earlier but could have missed something else ??

Hope you can see it from here, thanks
