common residential routers have DHCP enabled by default.
If you are unable to determine this, proceed under the
assumption that it is enabled and the next steps will confirm
if it is enabled or not.
Log in to the MAIN MENU and click the SYSTEM icon,
then the NETWORK icon. The NETWORK menu will be
shown as below:
Click in the checkbox next to DHCP ENABLE so the box
remains checked. Click OK to lock in this setting then restart
the HVR. Once the HVR has rebooted, return to this page.
The settings shown on this network page will be correct. If
the IP address is grayed-out, there may be a problem with
the network cable or connections or the DHCP setting on the
router may not be enabled. If this is the case please check all
cables and connections and consult the router’s user manual
to determine how to enable DHCP.
