    That depends on your router, mine is 10.1.1.23.

    Do you have DHCP enabled?

          As already said, the ip address can be anything you want.

          As long as the dreambox and PC are on the same subnet.

          There's more info about ip addresses here...

          right ive seen too many people thinking that they need to add a new image, nothing is further from the truth, you only need to add the new fix file to your old image. now im presuming that some people might find the idea of flash fxp (ftp) a bit daunting if they have not used it before so heres a little help. this is based

            Hi to make it simple set up ip address on you dreambox as 192.168.1.1 and on your pc as 192.168.1.2 use a netmask as 255.255.255.0 and you will be able to talk to it, if you are not using a hub/switch you will need a crossover cable, pins 3+6 to pins 1+2 and visa versa on both RJ45 Plugs

            If you are connected on broadband, and this is the address of your box check you computer ip on windows its ipconfig /all at the CMD prompt, on linux its ifconfig at cmd prompt

            hope this helps

              If you look at you wireless router status page (usually on 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254, you should be able to identify an ip address assigned to 'dreambox'
