I have had great fun this morning. My main PC (Asus 170k) was slow so I re-booted it. It wouldn't connect to the network so I set the Win 10 troubleshooter running and it changed it from a fixed IP address to
DHCP. That worked but I use fixed addresses for my main kit so I changed
it back whereupon it wouldn't connect to the network .
After a bit if faddling (brain not in gear yet) I pinged the fixed
address and lo and behold got a response which is odd because DHCP
addresses are supposed to start at 192.168.1.100 here. Turned out it is
the Tenda Nova. I have no idea how it got that address, anybody know how
I can change it please? Can't find techy stuff like that in the app.
