As I said before it did disappear briefly from the HDR but it appeared back in there very quickly. I'm still thinking of getting an alternative because the Humax one can't access your youtube account, and the search facility is dreadful

Yes, I had a message last month when I tried to access uTube saying the app was being withdrawn due to uTube moving to only accepting https, then the app disappeared from the list. The following week when I went to use iPlayer I noticed that it was back and I tried it and it worked. I wonder...

Well I've finally managed to get enough free time to fix the problem. I have now rebooted the WCN4004, and everything is now working, although nothing looks any different in the Nighthawk router Attached Devices Page. That's the first time the WCN4004 has caused any problems. Sorry that I...

Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1 The router web page is indeed the same as the gateway tracert www.routerlogin.com Tracing route to www.routerlogin.com [192.168.1.1] over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms...

If you read what I said, I didn't turn off the DHCP server, what I did is swap the device mode to "Modem Only", there are no longer any controls over the DHCP as shown in the PDF I linked. As soon as I get home I fetch the settings from the Nighthawk router

As I said earlier the first router is no longer acting router, there is a device page that makes it only an ADSL modem, so there is no longer a DHCP server on the original router to conflict with anything. All my other devices like laptops, smart phones and the TV are accessing the internet...

Ah right, that makes sense, the box seemed to freeze up and not respond to the remote so I used Telnet to cause it to reboot, and after that I was able to view the web interface. The same sort of thing happened with the new hard disk, the Humax needed to be booted up with a working hard drive...

Last night I tried turning off both the routers, but that didn't seem to help, so I got bored and went to bed. I will try turning off the WCN4004, and see if rebooting that helps.

Trev, the WCN4004 isn't a router its the Wifi-To-Wired Media extender. The older router was the Netgear DG834. I think it must be this that is giving the address of 192.168.1.1 for the gateway. It is the only device with the ADSL modem, so I imagine that the DG834 is the gateway, so it...

Look, I read the instructions last week, this was the link I followed: https://hummy.tv/forum/threads/quick-start-guide.1301/ Which contains the text 1 .Perform a manual firmware update to install the custom firmware download onto the HD/HDR-FOX. The procedures are slightly different for...

I didn't overestimate the number of Linux commands available in the Humax stripped-down OS because the thread implied that those commands would work. I have no idea what Linux commands are available, becuase I don't actually use Linux. So on this very thread it mentioned the commands I...

Why should I know that, there's never been a need, I've always used the one on the remote, the instructions didn't mention using the remote so I then assumed there must be a physical standby button, so I guessed it would be the centre of the ring

Not sure why but I noticed that the humax changed IP again back to .10, some of the bull settings I put in the Humax network menu, seemed to stick when I went back to asking for DHCP, so I manually entered all the settings using the correct gateway and the .8 address, but when I then went back...

Well I've no idea what is different between now and last time with the old hard disk. The WebIF interface will not install from USB, it does indeed create a log. but nothing works I still get the 'Custom Firmware Successfully Installed!' webpage with the yellow 'Download & Install the Full Web...

I've tried setting it to manual, both with an IP in the DHCP range of the router and outside, and the Humax connected each time, but it makes no difference to the problem.
