Section 7 - Frequently Asked Questions The recommended player is installed, but it still doesn't work? Check to see if DirectDraw is enabled. 1. Open Windows® Start, Run, and type: dxdiag 2. Wait for the diagnostic to run. 3. Click on the Video 2 tab, which should correspond to the PC-on-TV device. If DirectDraw is disabled, click on the Enable button. The DirectDraw players such as PowerDVD should now work. Can the Internet be accessed while projecting through the PC-on-TV device? The Internet can be accessed either through the computer, the PC-on-TV device, or a wireless access point (if one already exists while being projected onto the display). If the Internet is accessed via the PC-on-TV device, it is advised that the Ethernet cable be connected to the PC-on-TV device before it is powered up. Note the following special cases: • The Ethernet port on the board can have DHCP enabled or STATIC addresses. This can be accomplished from within the PC-on-TV device application. • Port 80 should be open on the LAN to allow access to the Internet. • Port 21 should be open on the LAN to allow PC-on-TV device firmware updates. • The DHCP allocation range is 10.0.0.2 through 10.0.0.254 (IP/subnet of PC-on-TV device Ethernet port should be different than 10.0.0.x). • The PC-on-TV device Ethernet port has a 'dummy' MAC address by default. During the manufacturing process, each device is programmed with a unique MAC address. This is necessary to avoid MAC address conflict and improper operation of the device. Note that with a dummy MAC address, there may be some computers which may not be able to connect to the device. D-Link DPG-1200 User Manual 42

The Internet can be accessed either through the computer, the PC-on-TV device, or a wireless access point (if one
already exists while being projected onto the display).
If the Internet is accessed via the PC-on-TV device, it is advised that the Ethernet cable be connected to the PC-on-TV

Note the following special cases:
• The Ethernet port on the board can have DHCP enabled or STATIC addresses. This can be accomplished from
within the PC-on-TV device application.
• Port 80 should be open on the LAN to allow access to the Internet.
• Port 21 should be open on the LAN to allow PC-on-TV device firmware updates.
• The DHCP allocation range is 10.0.0.2 through 10.0.0.254 (IP/subnet of PC-on-TV device Ethernet port should
