that's because you are trying to "reserve" an IP address. With this approach, it still has to be WITHIN the range (2 to 100). We're saying to use a true FIXED IP address. You do NOT set this within the router. See my earlier post. Instead, you turn OFF the DHCP server option in the router temporarily. While OFF, do a factory reset on the SB player, it will try to find an IP then fail, then you can scroll down or whatever and you'll get an option to manually add IP address. Then use: IP: 192.168.1.101 Subnet: 255.255.255.0 gateway: 192.168.1.1 dns: 192.168.1.1 then your SB player will connect with this IP address and it is NOT a function of the DHCP server of the router. (don't forget to turn the DHCP server in the router back to ON when done). -- garym *Location 1:* VB Appliance 6TB (1.10) > LMS 7.7.1 > Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Location 2:* VB Appliance 3TB (2.0) > LMS 7.7.1 > Touch > Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win7(64) > LMS 7.7.1 > SqueezePlay Retired: SB3, Duet Receiver Controllers: iPhone (iPeng), iPad (iPengHD & SqueezePad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.7 on Win7(64) laptop Ripping (FLAC) - dbpoweramp, Additional Tagging - mp3tag ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94002 _______________________________________________ Radio mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/radio
