-

Currently, the receiver will only function with IP addresses assigned by DHCP

 

 

 

(Dynamic Host Control Protocol). It will not function with static IP addresses.

 

 

-

The number of IP addresses available for lease (use) may need to be increased.

 

 

-

The router may have MAC filtering turned on, and the receiver’s MAC address (listed

 

 

 

on the Network Setup screen) may not be in the router’s list of allowed MAC

 

 

 

addresses.

 

 

-

Review your router’s security settings to verify they are appropriate for this

 

 

 

installation.
