can see the server, the Digital Entertainer HD will too.

Using Ping

2. In the field provided, type ping followed by the IP address of the

Digital Entertainer HD. Displaying the IP address is described in “IP
Address” on page 7-12. For example, type:

ping 192.168.0.2

3. Click OK. You should see a message like this one:

pinging <IP address> with 32 bytes of data

If the path is working, you see this message:

If the path is not working, you see this message:

request timed out

If you cannot ping the Digital Entertainer HD, then your network might
not be working correctly.
