Ethernet cable Computer direct to a Devialet
#11
If your music playback PC/Mac with AIR installed only has one network interface (so in this case ethernet and no WiFi) you can't use a mobile control point. If your machine has WiFi it's not wise to give the playback machine or the Devialet the same IP address as your router as this router will route the commands from WiFi to the playback machine. Always use unique IP addresses for every connected machine on the same network/subnet.

So when you use subnet 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 for example you'll configure something like:

router: 192.168.1.254
playback machine ethernet: 192.168.1.10
playback machine WiFi: 192.168.1.11
Devialet: 192.168.1.20
mobile control point: 192.168.1.30

Be careful though you don't overlap with your routers DHCP server range as that will issue IP addresses automatically to other machines on your network from a certain fixed range, for example 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.200. When IP addresses clash you'll run into issues, guaranteed!
