Hi Kath_F
Thanks for replying.
Firstly, apologies for the dual post. The reason is when I first posted the message I got an error to say there was an error posting, therefore I did it again. Clearly, the first post had gone through, despite the error message.
Regarding the problem with the connect app. I am connected to my home wifi, I do not have a guest network set up and am not running a VPN. Also, when I first got the error I tried both a normal reboot and a factory reset (holding the reset button for 1 minute) and the issue still remained after both of these.
Also, I deleted the app from my phone, restarted the phone and then reinstalled the app to ensure that all app data was removed. Again, it did not resolve the issue.
Regards, Richard
