Although not all Android devices automatically use Google Cloud. Huawei and ZTE for example are banned from the Play Store and Google services.

icloud and whatever the Android equivalent is ? 

Google Cloud

Yesterday, I remembered I still need to look at the wireless in the XJ, as for months I've only been able to receive a handful of stations on DAB.  Not sure what is going on there, as I don't think there has been any recent changes after the introduction of DAB+ ?

Yeah, as I said, they ar mongrels.  Have been since they disbanded their design team in the 80s....

I didn't realise you had such a high regard of BMWs too

.......and JLR

I would like to have "a chat" with Sir Ian Callum, who designed both my cars.

More than that, I'd like to have a chat with the post design penny pinchers and the minkys responsible for pre-production decisions.  Such as using a torx bolt on the suspension that needs a T60 bit, and the idiot who uses a bolt that's 2" too long to hold the front lower arm to the subframe.

Surprisingly, I feel the need to praise the brummies who bolted them together - one was build in Castle Brom, other in Solihull - as they are well put together and rattle free.

No, I was referring to the worse of all the German marques, which isn't BMW or VAG

And in your particular case AA, I suspect it was Norton.  Best get rid of that junk IMHO.  I just tried going into a Homehub via its IP on a W11 PC here, no issue.

It's not Norton, tried it on the Win 11 desktop and the ISP works fine, only fails on my laptop.

I still think its Norton.  Installs at different times will have different capabilities and settings applied.

When your subscription is due for renewal, I'd not bother and go back to Window's built in AV and Smartscreen.  Aside from a VPN - any you really don't need one - I don't think Norton offers much else?

Which year though ? 

It'll be this year, as nobody can shift milk floats.

So its not updating the date manually (same place you change the time)?

I've seen oddities on the NCDC/NCDR where the flash is corrupt.  Refreshing the firmware can resolve it most of the time in my experience.

Yes, you change it manually, but when you store the time and date you want, its clicks back to something/something/2006.

How can i refresh the firmware?

Its a tech2 job, sadly.

One of mine is the same. I just set the time right and left the date.

Want to try a firmware flash, next time you're passing, see if it resolves it?

Give me plenty of notice, as chrisgixer has my Tech2 I think. Either that, or I've put it somewhere safe, lol.

Mine doesnt automatically change when the clocks go back / forward, even if I put up with radio 2 ,so I just do it manually.
It also reverts to 2006 if I disconnect the battery.
I just assume its over 20 years old and isnt going to be perfect.
