Hi All,
I am running into a strange issue with my new DS 209 box.
I was able to install the settings on the DS 209 box just fine by attaching the box directly to my laptop.
However, when I plug the network cable coming out of the DS 209 box to my D-Link's DIR-300 router, it just doesnt seem to be getting the IP address.
I have tried both the DHCP and manual IP configuration on the DS 209 box. Ofcourse, to change the settings, I had to plug the network cable from the box directly to my laptop's LAN port. But when i removed the cable and attached it to the router, then it was not able to get any IP.
The same router is able to give IP addresses to other 2 machines attached to it. I have tried with different network cables to makes sure that the cable was not faulty.
Any idea what might be going on?
Thanks in advance
