Hi guys on a related note -
Is the upgrade advice for the 8900 series the same as the 7800 series, in that you have to reset to factory defaults to apply the upgrade?

Depending on the firmware you have, you can upgrade with current settings, but if you run into issues, it will be advised to reset the unit back to factory default settings, and manually reconfigure the device.

(most people have been fine with upgrading with current settings selected)

Excellent :D , was hoping that the hour I spent configuring the little beauty this morning had not gone to waste :). (Yes I know I should have checked for the upgrade 1st!)

Many thanks billion_fan
