Correct. To be honest I Would rather not use a second Router.The main reason it does add a eyesore to my main HI-FI set up (UPSTAIRS). OK its only a router-but add in the mains Socket wire and another Ethernet Cable/s to the rest of already an array of wires/mains sockets and it does look a tad bit messy...Its a last resort to solve my wireless problem (Ironically creating MORE wires)..However Iam not ruling it out..yet. Your Correct in saying Iam making it all abit complex. But In my world its not enough to say Turn off Your DHCP. I need to How, where it is and why I need to...I need things in very Simplistic terms (Even Though Ive Googled DHCP now) I will get my SBT back running, Download Fing and try again ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ daleyb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=65604 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=106581 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
