Out of the blue my Networked Sony proj wont respond

Hi roomie users

I have been a roomie user from way back, so very familiar with system.

Out of the blue my Sony PJ model 385 that is ethernet wire networked ( spectrum modem and a netgear router to power on/off this and all my theater devices thru historical roomie commands. All Has worked flawlessly.

But about a week or 2 ago, something changed (???) Now i have to turn PJ on manually using the sony remote😳, all other devices work thru commands as they always have. I have checked all network settings, all devices are connected either using ethernet cable or thru my connected ITACH. The PJs ip address matches that in the PJ netgear network settings, and in roomie remote device set up and activities. I have done hard reset on my netgear router, network splitter ..nothing has worked. At my wits end..using remote is only way on/off.

In past this problem was fixed when i discovered the ip address in roomie app did not match that on netgear router.

I would appreciate any thoughts, help..

Thanks in advance

Peter
