Using the Setup Wizard (continued)
then uncheck the checkbox and enter your

The application will attempt to obtain the IP address from the DHCP server.
When this is checked, the other settings on this screen are automatically grayed.

If necessary, enter each of these settings for the DVC-1000. You will be able to
obtain the IP address, subnet mask and gateway address from your router
configuration settings, ISP or network administrator.
Host name (optional):
Your Internet Service provider may require you to provide a host name to connect
to the Internet. If this is required, you can enter it here. Today, this is rarely
required on a broadband connection and this setting is optional.

hardware of your DVC-1000. If you need to know the MAC address of your
DVC-1000, it can be found on this screen.
