That's interesting. I'd like to hear what setting other people are using. However, it is fair to say that the system was working OK with DHCP enabled until the time I disconnected the ethernet cable from the back of the MS600. Meridian say - "It is never a good idea to turn off DHCP for Meridian Sooloos components and manually assign static IP addresses unless you fully understand networking and IP Addressing." I don't pretend to have much competence with computers so I would be a little doubtful about attempting to change settings. J.
