Determining the ReplayTV MAC (Media Access Control) Address
Every Ethernet device has a unique hardware number. Follow these steps to find the ReplayTV Mac address.
1
Go to the DOS or Command prompt on your PC.
2 Type “Ping (ReplayTV’s IP address)” and press Enter.
3 Type “Arp -a” and press Enter.
You will see a list of hardware addresses and associated IP addresses. Look for the hardware address associated with
ReplayTV’s IP address.
Finding the Router IP Address
Your router will have both a WAN (External) and LAN (Internal) IP address. If you are specifying the IP address on ReplayTV, the
information you will use to set up ReplayTV will come from the LAN settings.
•
Check the documentation that shipped with your router. It normally has the default IP settings.
• If supported, use Netscape or Internet Explorer to look at the configuration settings on your router. For most routers, all you
need to do is enter the IP address of the router into your Web browser.
• Use the included software that shipped with your router to check its IP settings.
• If you have a PC connected to the router, you can use IPCONFIG or WINIPCFG on your PC to get the IP information you will
need. See “Finding your Computer’s Network Information” on page 19 for further details.
