Can you assign it a static ip address? &amp; how? thats really the only concern i have as DHCP would consatantly change the IP annoyingly

Yes, you can assign the unit a static IP address, which is usually done in your router. Take a look at your router and find a function for reserving a static IP address. Your router will assign the Global Cache an IP address and you should be able to navigate to a IP table that gives you the option to name and assign an static address (This is router specific. In my router this is under an advanced table). The other thing you should consider is the software that you choose to control the unit. I use Roomie Remote and recommend it to you and others. The software is easy to use, they have very responsive support team and an active user forum. There is a cost and it's kind of alacart depending on your system and what you're trying to control.

I set it up on my router as a static IP address then went through the web interface. should work in any newer web browser.

Plug it into your router and you're all set. I had it set up as a media drive for the tv and all of my computers. It gets it's own ip so functions as an independent entity

I read on another forum that we can try turning off dhcp on the player and assign a static IP address to it.. Not quite sure how to tackle since I am at work right now, but will check it out tonight.. Didn't have any troubles until this so called update..

it has been a few since I have installed ours. I access ours through the IP address I assigned it. I believe it has a default IP then you change it.

Reflash it with TFTP, as soon as it start (power it up) hit flash... this will take it back to default, use the default IP address for the box.

I am doing this for a work site to the main office. It's a bit buggy getting it running though and will need public IP addresses. You may want to review current documentation though to verify they haven't created a sync via hosted web service since we set ours up.

Yes it supports DHCP Server. Make sure you update the firmware. I believe it's supported since certain version. Commands thats I used to configure a scope:ip dhcp pool network Data_10.0.2.0/24address low 10.0.2.21 high 10.0.2.200 255.255.255.0domain-name lan.xxx.comdefault-router 10.0.2.1dns-server 10.0.3.1This switch is the best bang out of you buck. For less than $300 you have fanless, 1GBit layer 3 switch (static routes only and no IPv6 routing)

Yes, as does all equipment when you connect it to a router, the router will "assign" the new device an IP address. Removing power will not erase the device's assigned IP address. The device which you connect to the internet (DSL modem or cable modem) is what you need to make sure has a static IP address. My DSL modem ( internet service through AT&T;) does NOT have a static IP address. During the summer lightning strikes will cause it to reset (reboot) and I have to identify the new IP address from home and then edit the IP address in the smartphone app to view the cameras. Yes, to the 2nd question as well. I use the IP cam viewer by Robert Chou. Yes, as does all equipment when you connect it to a router, the router will "assign" the new device an IP address.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) in the tech world is a service program that gives out or assigns and maintains unique I.P. Address (Internet Protocol Address) to other networked devices. It is that address that allows them to communicate with other devices on the same subnet or network realm. Without DHCP you would have to manually address all your network devices.The Static just means that you would like to control address assignment rather than have the device do it for you automatically.

You may create static dhcp entries (mac addresses and ip addresses). It does not appear to have further dhcp functionality.

It has an inbuilt wireless adapter that you can allocate a static IP address to.

Make sure you are using a router and not just a modem with a switch. A switch won't split a single IP address up, that's what a router does. The switch just directs traffic from the router.

Connect it to wired router/switch and http to its ip address to configure it. Should be 192.168.0.1 or something.

Why would you want to attempt to change the MAC, as far as I know that is hardcoded in all machines and is unique. If you mean can you change it's IP address, then the answer is yes. Yes it can be used as a repeater. To be honest, given your question regarding changing MAC address, I think you may want to do more research on what you are trying to do. IIRC the Zyxel website has diagrams of various network configurations you can use.

That probably won't be possible because each device hooked up to the adapter will be fighting for an IP address. Each device needs an adapter, you're going to need a device called an access point to do what you're asking.

You don't need a static IP address to use the wifi to access your local PBX host. If you're using the phone's VPN from a different network however you need to make sure they're using a Cisco router as no other router works with the built in VPN. Again, that's only if you're off the local network. If you're on the local network then there's nothing special needed. No fixed IP or anything.
