Thanks again - but I am really struggling with setting up the Duet
system to play from LMS 7.9 on the laptop via ethernet.
I've tried a Duet factory reset but can't seem to force it to use
ethernet - I only got the option once in many screens of setting up on
the Controller, and then it didn't

Yes it is turning out to be a pain ! However the Touch players are SO
good I'd hate it if one of them got damaged.
I have now succeeded ! By following this (found by googling) ..

And would the same apply if I try the Duet receiver (my preferred player
in case someone spills a pint over it - Touch is more valuable to me
!).
Can Controller talk to Receiver over router wifi to make sure it is
setup to networl via ethernet connection ?

Thanks again for the idea of using my old router - got things working
perfectly tonight !
However I am slightly confused want to make sure I get this as robust
as possible (to minimise risk of disaster on the night).
I plugged both the Touch laptop into router via ethernet (but the

congratulations on wedding. To control with your smartphone, you just
need WIFI on the router turned on. The laptop and TOUCH are both
ethernet connected to the router. You can have wifi off on the laptop.
But your smartphone needs to connect to the WIFI SSID/password (if any)
of the spare
Fixed ip's in the router is only really half the solution if that
causing trouble for you you don't get rid of the dependency of the
routers DHCP .
So iether use DHCP or just exclude some adress space from the DHCP pool
and setup true static adresses on the devices and the server .

No not really - I ran the Duet same as I now run my 2 Touches.
Wirelessly, with static IP addresses set in router software.
So with this wired set up via router
Yes. Most don't bother with fixed IP's for SB usage, fewer still with
players, I never have.

I did eventually set fixed IPs up as it seemed to stabilise Duet
performance. I then did the same for Touches (but I never tried them
with dynamically allocated IP addresses -
In addition to Mnyb's post: the IP address settings in Win7 can be
changed here:
(You can find this by opening the Network and Sharing Center from
Control Panel or system tray and clicking the item 'Change adapter
settings' in left column.)

Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS
You can setup static IP adresses in both ends . I'm unsure if you really
need a twisted to cable or if any patch cable would do ,to be sure bring
a switch .
... But try at home first so that you be sure that it's working .
If your only going to play local files there is no need for Internet
Thanks both
I am very thick when it comes to this - could you give me more details
on how to set this up (will obviously try at home first).
Point noted re. Receiver.
This is a Win 7 laptop.

Hi
I went to hotel where I am organising music for an up coming event, and
the wifi is (predictably) atrocious.
Can run music via Receiver / Touch by connecting these devices directly
to laptop via ethernet ? If so can someone please give me detailed
instructions (I've never done it befoe).
I've never used direct connection as far as I can remember but for me
this has to relate with setting up Internet sharing on the laptop.
Which OS do you use ?
The Touch has auto-sensing capability so you should be able to use any
ethernet cord and plug it straight into the PC (no need for a
The touch can also be setup from its own screen .
If the network has no DCHP ( the faculty that doles out IP adresses
automatically ) Touch will eventually ask for one hence you can do a
static IP setup .
You can go to your network card settings in the pc ( sorry no win 7 pc
