Magnet use public IP addresses. Assuming that all consumer broadband products use private RFC1918 addresses and NAT is bad.
It sounds like this laptop is not using the right DNS servers.
The two IP addresses mentioned resolve to ns1.magnet.ie and ns2.magnet.ie
Random googling suggests that dns1.magnet.ie (85.91.1.18) and dns2.magnet.ie (85.91.1.19) should be used. Manually configure these IP addresses in your Internet connection settings for your DNS servers.
I give this a go this evening....however the DNS for the other laptop is as per one of the previous threads
DNS Servers 85.91.1.128 85.91.1.130, and it works fine.....as again I am open to anything at this stage & I will give it a try.
Also as Clubman previously suggested I will call Magnet this evening
