thanks for the reply!!


there's a good news!! i was able to make the LMS installed on my desktop
to recognise the player, when configured for wired-DHCP mode, using the
relevant command-line for it on UDAP, ie, -*set interface=1
lan_ip_mode=1 squeezecenter_address=192.168.1.150*-


BUT, trying on static IP is tricky!

this is what i tried for a wired static IP configuration:

1. went to the IPv4 properties of my network-connection.

2. selected 'Use the following IP address', and put the IP address as
*192.168.1.101* (the router still has 'DHCP-enabled'. does it need to be
disabled for this config? though i haven't run into any issues so far on
thenet, with my desktop having a static IP and DHCP being enabled on the
router).

3. then, fired up UDAP, 'discovered' the SBC.

4. now here's the tricky part. am not sure of the values i need to fill
in the relevant command-line for this config, ie,

-*set interface=1 lan_ip_mode=0 lan_gateway=192.168.3.1
lan_network_address=192.168.3.10 lan_subnet_mask=255.255.255.0
primary_dns=192.168.3.1 squeezecenter_address=192.168.1.150
*-


my confusions in this are:

* -lan_gateway- i understood is my router's IP-address;
-lan_network_address- is i presume the static IP i put, ie,
192.168.1.101, isn't it?!

* -primary_dns- should be the actual primary dns i use, ie,
*59.185.3.10*, isn't it?! but then, why does the sample show it as the
lan-gateway address instead?!

* since the LMS is for now installed on my desktop itself, i put in the
-squeezecenter_address- as 192.168.1.101. 

after following the above steps, my connection goes for a toss! i get an
IP-conflict error, and can't pull-up any webpages. i didn't take a
screenshot of the 'list' command in UDAP, because i first want to make
sure what values i need to fill in the above command-line. please
suggest what those should be. since now i was successful in making the
SBC get detected by squeezecenter, am sure that it can be done by using
a static IP as well on the wired-mode.
