Then we should try to get Logitech to correct so it reliably and fast
gets an address from the DHCP server instead of forcing users to use
static IP's when they shouldn't have to. I'm guessing someone already
has registered a bug for this at http://bugs.slimdevices.com, if there
isn't one someone that have the problem should register one with as
much information as possible so Logitech can prioritize it and schedule
it for a future firmware release.

If it takes minutes to get an IP from a DHCP server something is
seriously wrong.
