I got it back and it's working perfectly !!
I have a few questions though {being an absolute newbie with this type of
recorder}
1) am I supposed to use JUST the replay remote from now on even when viewing
live TV
?,{I just want to make sure I'm not misusing the replay in anyway}
2) I'm using the Ethernet connection,with a linksys wireless router
connected from one of it's 4 ports 100' away in a room where the replay is
located to a linksys 5 port switch.From 1 of the switch's ports I have an
Ethernet cable going to the replay,from another one of the switches ports I
have to use a linksys wireless access point for better connection in that
room so far away from my router.,the router is setup to use DHCP,Someone had
mentioned reconfiguring my router to use a setting called "STATIC" DHCP
?,I'm not too savvy on how to do this ?
can anyone help with this reconfiguring of the linksys router {WRT 55AG} !!
and thanks !
