Hi. Hope you guys might be able to confirm this bug or feature. I have only noticed this recently in moving from 2.15 to 3.7 because I have been backing up and moving folders etc between a device and the computer [Win 10]. It has occurred with both the Live 2 and the Force. You will need to be using an ethernet cable connected to your router. Steps to reproduce:
1. Connect a device to the computer via usb and go into controller mode.
2. Check computer is seeing your device drives - all good. Eject from computer.
3. Go back to Standalone.
4. After device has re-booted, go to Preferences/Ethernet.
In my case I find that the setting for Ethernet has gone to Offline and I have to re-instate it by ticking the enable box.
I just wondered: is this meant to happen or is it a bug? If anyone can reproduce this and they think its a bug let me know and I’ll report it.
