Thanks for suggestions which confirms what I found online.
It would have been interesting to find out what suddenly changed to
cause this problem but at the end of the day it is not a problem with my
software and it is probably better for those with responsibility for the
network to fix it.
However thank you very much for coming to my aid.
Thanks again,
Roger
