Internet access: Does the IP address have to be static to have this work?

Yes. You can access it across the internet by ip address, but it is much easier to set up a free DNS so you only have to remember a website instead of the ip address. Once you do that, you have to forward the correct port on your router.

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.

Yes..you can give each port its own static ip or use them together (teamed).

This will work, but you will also need to setup a VLAN-Aware Router as well.

You'll have to have a DDNS account if you don't want to change your ip setting on your viewer constantly. The unit does support DDNS, but mine is hosted on my router, so I don't know how good it works.

Set a static address under the wifi settings for this device, use the same address that DHCP display however only enter the IP address and subnet mask (255.255.255.0). Leave gateway and DNS blank. With this setup your cellular data will be available.

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..

yes you can, simply forward all traffic to static lan ip you want and put a rule of any traffic is permited in or out. this will open all ports to that ip and no firewall will restric it from the router. This one way, there are other ways.

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.

That is the key.... making the printer's ip address static. Solves all reconnectivity issues!

Yes. You need the PCM to get the IP address then it will work without a PCM.

It's browser based. If you are connected to the router, you should be able to configure it.

It can work either way. Because of the mesh system, it necessarily assigns it's own IP addresses. You can't override this. But it will work on either a system without dhcp or with. We use it plugged into a linksys wrt54g.Highly recommended. We have three of them. Much better than six of the old model.

tl;dr:I had the exact same problem. Just call your service provider and ask them to send a reset signal to the modem. Then restart your wifi router.Longer answer: When you self-activate with your own computer connected to the modem, it puts the modem in static IP mode. At least that was the info I got from my Netgear wireless router while troubleshooting. When Comcast reset the modem, it started working in dynamic IP mode handing out an IP and DNS server addresses to my router.

Yes, Dynamic DNS or VPN in. Plugging it in won't automatically put it on the internet.

There is a small pin-hole, which you can push into with a pin and reset the settings. The IP is 192.168.10.1 most probably

I would think it would work fine. Shouldn't matter what kind of router or IP address. It should have the ability to extend the signal.
