After speaking to support, the following Steps fixed my issue:

On the Ready Screen

1. X then Back button then X then Back Button again

2. 'Enable Disable Menu' should display

4. Press right button to Find Ethernet (or whatever is disabled)

5. If Off turn On by pressing the OK button 

6. Then exit menu by press X

Lights on ethernet port should be on now showing that it's active. 

 

Hope this Helps someone!
