Connecting to a Home Network
Subnet Mask .
A subnet mask allows communication between a large network (such as
the Internet) and a smaller sub-network (such as your home network). It uses the same
format as an IP address and is usually provided by your Internet service provider (ISP).
The subnet mask for a home network is usually ‘255.255.255.0’.
You may also be able to find the subnet mask by inspecting the IP settings of a computer
on the same home network, or by contacting your Internet service provider.
Gateway (Router) Address.
Enter the IP address of your home gateway or router. The IP
address is usually available in the configuration screens for your gateway or router. Some
common values for the gateway or router IP address on a home network are ‘192.168.0.1’
and ‘192.168.1.1’. If you use a router supplied by your Internet service provider (ISP),
your ISP should also have supplied the router’s IP address.
You may also be able to find the home gateway or router IP address by inspecting the IP
settings of a computer on the same home network.
DNS (Domain Name Server) Address.
If your home network includes a broadband
connection to the Internet, your Internet service provider (ISP) will have given you a DNS
address. You may also be able to find the DNS address by inspecting the IP settings of a
computer on the same home network.
Confirm Settings.
Review the settings and select “Accept these settings” if they are
correct. Congratulations, your DMS should now be connected to your home network!
For steps you can take to troubleshoot issues with your TCP/IP Settings, see “Questions
About Networking” on page 149.
Change Connection Type.
You see this screen if you are not using a shared Internet
connection to connect to the TiVo service. If your network has access to an always-on
broadband connection, select “Yes” to use it to connect to the TiVo service instead of a
phone line.
