I have no idea if this is useful - hostname = 192.168.0.229 2a02:1810:1532:1900:1804:69c3:a2e:8f4f 2a02:1810:1532:1900:1d39:1c4:f800:fc5b
Using very simple language, is it possible to determine the cause of my problem and the steps to take in order to solve it?
If further information is required, let me know (detailing the steps I should take in order to retrieve it).
I look forward to feedback that a newbie can understand and implement.
Thanks
