Changing the Media Player’s Network Settings
You may need to adjust your media player’s network settings if you change from a wired LAN to
a WLAN, or if you change the configuration of your WLAN.
This section explains how to:
• Set a static IP address for your media player (see page 60).
• Change from a static IP address to dynamic IP address (see page 60).
• Add the media player to your WLAN (see page 61).
• Find the media player’s MAC ID and IP address (see page 62).
Setting a Static IP Address
Note: Only advanced network users should set a static IP address for the media player.
If you have connected your media player to a wired LAN, the network settings on your media
player don’t need to be adjusted. The default network setting (automatic DHCP IP) is highly
recommended.
However, if you are an advanced network user and want to manually set a static IP address
for the media player, follow these instructions.
To set a static IP address:
1. On the Home screen, press Menu, select Settings, then press OK.
2. Press Menu, select Network Setup, then press OK.
OR
Use the left and right arrows on the remote to scroll through the Settings screens until you find
the Network screen.
3. Select Wired Setup, then press OK.
4. Select Static IP (MANUAL), then press OK.
5. Set the IP address as required, then press OK.
6. Press OK again to save the new network settings.
The new IP address appears on the Network screen.
Changing from a Static IP to Dynamic IP Address
To change from static to dynamic IP address:
1. On the Home screen, press Menu, select Settings, then press OK.
2. Press Menu, select Network Setup, then press OK.
