Ethernet cable Computer direct to a Devialet

[Jwg1749]

It is quite simple actually...

Just set a same subnet fixed ip on both Devialet's ethernet and your computers IP4.

They can look like this:
Devialet: (on the advanced settings of Ethernet input)
DHCP off
Fixed IP: 192.168.0.77
Subnet: 255.255.255.0

on pc, network card settings, IP4 :
DHCP off
IP: 192.168.0.33
Subnet: 255.255.255.0

this basically says there are two machines one no:77 and one no:33 on the same subnet so they dont have to ask a DHCP server for assigning addresses.

Next, connect with a regular ethernet cable (one end to devialet, the other to the PC) without any switches in between.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, Kunter!

This works in essentially the same way with a Mac. In the Mac's network settings, you need to configure DHCP manually and set the router IP address to the same address as the Devialet.

I don't hear any improvements in SQ. The benefit of direct connection via ethernet is that it stops any drop-outs due to network activity. The disadvantage is that it seems to introduce a long gap in the time it takes for commands from a mobile control point (JRemote on iPad in my case) to have an effect.
