Forum talk:Screenplay pro hd and network

Hi all, I've bought a Screenplay Pro HD and I'm not able to make work the ethernet connection to my router. I have upgraded to the last firmware version downloaded from the iomega site. The light on the router port is green and not blinking. To connect the screenplay to the router I use a cat5 ethernet cable. How can i make it work? Are there any tools I can use through a USB connection in order to setup network parameters (like the use of DHCP instead of a static IP address, etc.)? Is better to give the screenplay back to Iomega through the assistance in order to have a new one working fine?

Thank you in advance to everyone who will spend their time to answer.

 * With the Network and TV connected to the ScreenPlay, go into the setup menu and select the wired network. Do your setup there.  Select DHCP.  If it still doesn't recognize, try setting up a fixed IP.  If still not doing anything, you may have a defective one.  Try talking to ScreenPlay support (1-on-1 chat is free if you are still under warranty) to see if they have any other ideas.  But don't let them send you a replacement if they come to that conclusion, just return it to the store and exchange it. --JCoug 16:45, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Thank you so much! I went to the setup menu and set the static IP address because DHCP didn't work. In the manual they say that DHCP should be the default (working) setting but nor DHCP neither static IP address was selected.
