actually fixed IP can be done directly from the TRANSPORTER. In the network setup on transporter itself there is a option to manually assign IP. You'll want to login to your router just to find out what the router is setup to do for assigning DHCP IP addresses. For example, mine hands out addresses from .100 to .254. So if your router is 192.168.1.1, then you'd do this for the transporter fixed IP: IP: 192.168.001.25 (the .25 could be anything above 1 and below the point where your router hands out IP addresses, mine is .100) Subnet: 255.255.255.000 Gateway: 192.168.001.001 DNS: 192.168.001.001 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96535 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
