harryt,

Please do not start multiple threads on a topic/question/problem; doing so goes against our Posting Guidelines. In light of that, I've merged your most recent thread on your problem into this one.

You should definitely try wiring directly into your home router; that will help us determine exactly where the problem lies. The fact that things operate correctly at work, however, does tell us that the problem lies somewhere in your home network's setup/configuration

Please do not contact me by email or PM for help. We're all volunteers here, and only have so much free time to dedicate to our efforts.

However, if I've been working on a thread with you already, and seem to have "forgotten" your thread, please do send me a message. I try not to let things slip through the cracks, but it does happen sometimes.
