Actually since 7.5 it is pretty easy. Just turn off DHCP in your router and, after a minute or so trying to connect, the Controller will present you with the option to set the IP manually. With 7.3.3 and earlier it -might- have done this or it might not, it seemed to be pretty random and sometimes took two or three attempts to connect before it would give you the option. Not sure about 7.4 as I only used it very briefly. In order to set up a manual IP on the Receiver you need to go through a full factory reset of the Duet (Controller AND Receiever) with DHCP turned off, but it is still pretty simple and once it is done it sticks. It is not the problem it once was, so probably does not deserve this kind of post. However I would like Logitech to put IP addressing on the advanced Settings menu of the Controller rather than relying on the user's knowledge of DHCP servers and their router firmware. Incidentally, it *is* possible on a Blackberry. In fact you can set different static IPs for each Wi-Fi network you connect to. Not even Windows XP will let you do that! -- TheLastMan Matt *SqueezeBoxes:* SB Duet (Controller + two receivers) *Server:* Synology Diskstation 107+ NAS (with firmware 2.3-1157) running Squeezebox Server 7.5.0 on Synology Package Manager *Network:* Netgear DG834GT ADSL modem/router, 2 x Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 as access points *Livingroom:* Receiver into Naim 42/110 amp, B&W CM2 speakers *Kitchen:* Receiver into Denon DM37 mini-system, B&W 686 speakers *Study:* Linn LP12, Naim 72/Hi-cap/Headline.
