Hi guy's i'm having the same problem i've sorted out the 1st box its working great even navgaram7 updated but now i'm trying to connect the second box but it's not connecting the image on the box is lakypro same as the other but the IP adress is different which is obvious
on the 1st box the IP is shown like this: 192.168.1.7
but on the 2nd box it's 192.168.100.3?
i'm changing the ip address and also putting in the username and password but its not connecting it says can't establish connection
An existing connection was forcibly closed by remote host.
and i'm using and ethernet cable through a router if that helps can someone please help! please

thats different it's shown as 192.168.100.1
i changed the IP address to match and pressed START NETWORK at the top and tried to connect but it's coming up with the same message???

the easiest way is to set your box to DHCP save it and start network, connect box to router, then unplug your router and dbox, plug them back in and give them a few mins, then go to the network page of your dbox and use the ip adresse that the router has assigned it

Thanks mate that sounds easy enough should i have DHCP on or off? sorry if its a daft question i'm new to this

sorry i dont get what u mean ,,

why not set the gateway address on box 2 to the same as on Box 1 ?

get the gateway address from DBOX1 or check the gateway address on the PC using ;

START>RUN>CMD

c:/>ipconfig <enter>

(this is for xp , vista i dont know ,)

----------------- ignore my reply above -- krazylegs approach is as valid --------------------

DHCP ON on the dbox
