Can't access Iplayer on Foxsat HDR
I have had no problem accessing Iplayer until a recent upgrade to FTTC broadband (now have separate fibre modem and router to replace previous combined modem/router). I have always used a manually applied IP address but now can't seem to get any joy either manually or using DHCP. The new router appears to have a new Router Address (according to the Humax) and the DNS Address has also changed. I have no problem accessing the box from my PC using Raydon's software - it just appears to be a problem with the box accessing the Internet.
Any ideas? |

Thanks for the input - seems everything is working fine now but have set a reserved address as suggested.
Mark - I don't think my problem was an Iplayer issue as I could access Iplayer through my Sony Blu Ray. I was having problems accessing any of the interactive channels on my HDR (Iplayer, ITV player, The Space etc...) Michael |

Your ISP's DNS will take less hops and should be faster.
