Hi Armaal, yes, I failed to mention that as that was one of the first things that I tried. Late last night checked it yet again, verified my network settings, booted it up, getting solid green and solid blue, but no amber/yellow light on it, nor do i have lights on the ethernet port on my laptop. Device powers on with green and blue lights. Blue blinks at first and then turns solid and will stay like this for many hours - I left it on like this, went out to dinner, came back and still the same. This is what i have been seeing consistently after buying the device. I can almost guarantee that if I reflash it again manually, that it will work for a short time, and then stop working. Starting to think I will need to return it unless anyone has any other ideas.
Thank you in advance...
