Well, in the interest of trying to make some progress I pulled out my
old Netgear router and plugged both my PC and the Receiver into that. I
reset the router so that it was running dead stock - 192.168.0.1 and
everything else. No security features enabled, set the subnet mask to
255.255.0.0 and...

still nothing. Short of getting a crossover cable (which I have plenty
of at work but not here!) this is about as simple as I can make it.

One thing I noticed. The activity light on the Receiver's Ethernet jack
did not stay flashing after the initial hookup to the router. It flashed
at the start like you'd expect, but after that went silent. I seem to
recall that the activity light on TCP/IP driven Ethernet connection
should always have *some* activity, no?
