Configured DHCP on my WiFi router to assign static IP address to the Humax's MAC address. All working fine. Tested all the major functions (decrypt, streaming via Webif, download); all working fine. Just wondering if this worth a note in any WiFi FAQs there might be around in this site? Finally...

I'm going to follow your advice and move to DHCP and investigate the router settings to fix my IP address by MAC code as 'blackhole' suggests. I have mostly fixed IPs in my LAN to retain drive mappings etc, but I've never investigated using DHCP to do the same thing by fixing (or never expiring)...

Ok thanks. I'll be interested to know! Good night

So - just for my understanding, it looks like, in my case, the hosts file is being set to the DCHP setting if that is what is in use, however if I have set the IP address manually, the hosts file is taking the 'default' IP address for the WiFi (i.e. setting the hosts file before reading the...

I've just done it using DHCP and it performs as you say. I also checked that it was bringing the hosts file in-line with the DHCP settings. I modifed it away from the settings it had (to a random setting) and on re-boot it's set it to the DHCP setting (192.168.1.8 in this case). Therefore, looks...

By LAN, I mean Ethernet

I can run DHCP; however it's not my preferred choice since I can't be certain of the address I'll end up with. I have a varying number of devices and don't run my Humax all the time. What if I switch to a 'Lan' configuration, change that IP address to the fixed one I want, then reconnect the...

Do I just need to modify the hosts file to resolve this?

I'm using Wifi. The hosts file has got 192.0.2.200 against the humax entry as you suspected. The modinit log file has got a range of 192.0.2.x IP addresses scattered through it. The entry against the eth0 controller suggests an IP address for that of 192.0.2.100. The entry against the wlan0...

I have recently installed the customised firmware and am attempting functions such as Decrypt and Download via the WebIf web-portal. I can access WebIf fine. The IP address (fixed IP) for my HUMAX is set as 192.168.1.64 When try to perform a "Download" or a "Decrypt" or just click on the name...
