Finding your Computer’s Network Information

If your home network does not have a DHCP server (a router, for example), you will need to manually set the IP address on

ReplayTV. You can use the network information from your computer to determine what the IP address should be. Following are

steps to find this information for common computer systems.

Windows 9x or Millennium

1

Go to the Start menu on your PC and select Run.

2

Type WINIPCFG and select OK.

3

Select the correct network adapter from the menu.

The network adapter from which you collect information must be connected to ReplayTV or to the same network (e.g., hub or

router) as ReplayTV.

Windows 2000

Go to the Command prompt on your PC and type IPCONFIG /all.

The network adapter from which you collect information must be connected to ReplayTV or to the same network (e.g., hub or

router) as ReplayTV.

Windows XP

1

Go to the network and dialup connections folder.

2

Select the appropriate LAN connection.

3

Double-click on the LAN connection.

4

Click on the Support button. The information for that adapter will display in the window.

The network adapter from which you collect information must be connected to ReplayTV or to the same network (e.g., hub or

router) as ReplayTV.
