[QUOTE="Sab, post: 176328, member: 175105"] I just can't get DB500 onto the internet. I'm running Win.XP on two computers with a router. Ip's are router-192.168.7.1 the other two pc's 192.168.7.2and3. I've just realised that network setting were not installed so I've installed Network services and Network file and printers on both. Now this is where I come adrift! The 500 has an ethernet connector. 1) Can I connect direct to the router? I believe I need a Cat5 'straight' cable and use broadband or 2) Do I connect to the ethernet on the back of either pc and use modem (as a result broadband is disconnected) with Cat5e crossover cable. Communication setup DB: IP 192.168.7.24 (no DHCP) Netmask 255.255.255.0 - Type LAN - Nameserver 192.168.7.1 - Gateway 192.168.7.1 - Enable network (ticked) - Port 80 Mounts Manager 10.0.0.97 NFS Is it necessary to Telnet192.168.7.24 to make initial contact with server? ( a nice little chart with all variations would help immensely for us newbies!) Sab [/QUOTE]
