My Satellite Setup
sky hd
spiderbox 9000hd with motorised dish.
My Location
Derry/Donegal
when i put my image etc on my dreambox at the beginning i used the dreambox control centre and conencted both dreambox and pc to the router with no problem. I have since tried to connect again and it wont work

i did lend my box to a friend for a week for him to see what he thought, could this be the reason? has the ip adress changed?

how do i get it back to connect to my pc?
 
Hi @jordie,

On Dreambox remote press: Menu...press 6 (Setup)...press 6 (Expert Setup)...press 1 (Communication Setup)...and read the current IP of your Dreambox.

It is best to have the Dreambox on a fixed IP. I use Address Reservation in my router. So the MAC address of my Dreambox is always allocated the same IP address even though the Dreambox is set for DHCP.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes, John.
