agree. but note it is still possible. factory reset your TOUCH then remove power. Then plug it in to your computer with an ethernet cable. Then add power to touch. It will try to get IP address then fail. Scroll down a bit and you'll see the add IP manually option. enter your address, etc. Then go though WIFI setup if need be to enter password, etc. Another approach is to setup initially via wifi setup, but have the DHCP function of your router temporarily turned off. Then it will also allow you to manually enter IP address. I used this approach to give my CONTROLLERs fixed IP addresses. I've used this approach to give all my TOUCH players a fixed IP address. -- garym ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83424 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
