How will resetting he network help? I can connect fine. Everything was working fine.
Yes it is brand new AND I believe was from batch 10. I received it from a vendor who shipped mid November. Was that 10? Regardless it was new and using whatever firmware it shipped with.
ALL I did was remove a pool and save/apply. Nothing more.
Please help.
There is certainly something else that you did, otherwise, it'd be showing the pool details in the screenshot you posted even though the pool was dead. But you'll get a blank status screen if it can not connect to the internet. And that, ma dear friend, is why we advised you to look at the network settings!
EDIT: And before you ask, YES it has been known that the S3 set to static IP can fail to connect, there's a simple explanation for that, but that is for another day, simply ensure it is on DHCP!
