RESOLVED: Posting an update as this as it may help someone in a similar situation. Having tried everything mentioned above in my original post, I spoke to a nice CS guy on Stadia who interestingly ruled out a faulty controller, by getting me to use my phone as a Personal Hotspot and the Stadia Controller connected easily to it - so this did leave my ISP (Virgin Media) or the router (Google Wifi) as the possible culprit. For me, it was more likely the router as the issue was connecting to it. On the Google Wifi Router. you can also setup a separate guest network, so I connected my iPhone to the guest network and once again was able to pair the Stadia controller to it with no issues, however, when I attempted to do this again to my main network with all my devices on, once again it failed. Having already turned the Google Wifi on/off numerous times, I was about to resort to a full factory reset of the Google Wifi Router , however I justread another article online that restarting the network from within the Google WIFI App had resolved a similar issue for another user. So in the App I hit 'Restart Network' 30-seconds later everything came back online and when I attempted to reconnect the Stadia Controller to my main network it worked! So I agree with @AndreaGilfone there must of been a conflict with possible IP on the devices connected and only a 'Restart Network' from within the Google Wifi App resolved the issue. Hope this can help anyone else with a similar issue, and save you loosing two days of gaming!
