Hi
I am having problems connecting to my dream box 800hd se using the Dream box control center. On the dreambox it connects using the WLAN but when do network test it fails on DHCP (i think), ip address verify and the last task can not rememeber??
I have gone in to my router and it shows the connection to the DB.
I also tried using the Control Center, which fails.
I went to my cousins who does not have a static ip address and it worked no probs...
So can i get help please????????:help:

yep thats all been done.....when i connect to the router the dreambox is clealry there and the ip address is given. But as i have found the fixed ip address seems to be the issue, any software that could assist???

Have you put the static ip address in your box and turned off DHCP

Make sure the static IP you are giving to your DB is available on your router, and that is within the range that is allowed from your router.

Also check the mac code in your router. I have had it duplicated on two devices and it must be unique

Try using a different version of DCC,version 1.30 works good for me.Cheers
