If DHCP is not enabled, you will need to assign a static
address to your media receiver. Take note of the
IP
Address
and
Subnet Mask
listed by the ipconfig
utility, and see “wired with static address” on
page 38.
Note:
If you cannot tell how your network addresses
are assigned, then try dynamic address (DHCP) first.
The media receiver will display an error message if it is
unable to dynamically configure its address.
wired home network
In a wired home network, all computers are connected
to a network hub or router. This may also act as a
cable/DSL modem for sharing an internet connection.
wired with dynamic address
Connect the media receiver to your router, just as you
would one of your computers. In almost all cases, the
router works as a DHCP server (i.e., it assigns network
addresses).
Set the media receiver network settings to wired using
DHCP addressing. From the main home screen:
