OK Ignore that comment, call it a moment of frustration, as I had already tried all sorts of combinations including every conceivable way of pinging things. I wouldn't exactly say I'm looking for a quick fix, as this MythFrontEnd has been giving me grief for months now, so I do get frustrated with it from time to time. (or quite a lot actually). I'd love to be able to just hand it all over to a Linux expert, but haven't been able to find one. Actually I think I've more or less solved the networking issue now. I think something else keeps overloading my router, probably the torrent client on my other machine. Next, back to the frustration of trying to figure out the TV-Output configuration. That is something I seem to have spent hours trying to figure out, but still don't have the 1st clue what I'm doing. Which is extremely frustrating, but I suppose I have no choice other than to keep trying. Thanks. Richard.
