Connecting ReplayTV to a DSL Modem
Connecting ReplayTV to a DSL modem is the same as connecting it to a cable modem with a few exceptions. Refer to “Connecting
ReplayTV to a Cable Modem” on page 13 with the following additions.

ReplayTV to a Cable Modem” on page 13 with the following additions.
•
The DSL modem you own might be a DSL router. If you are not sure, contact your ISP or DSL modem provider. If it is a router,
it can automatically assign an IP address to ReplayTV. If you have PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) DSL (you
have to log on through software before you can access the Internet), you cannot connect ReplayTV directly to your DSL
modem unless it is also a router. PPPoE accounts require that the user log on with a username and password. Software is nor-
mally provided for your computer to do this. If you purchase a router to use with your PPPoE account, verify that it supports
PPPoE.

Router Setup
The default settings for routers are normally sufficient for ReplayTV to connect to the ReplayTV Service for the daily Channel
Guide listings and occasional software updates. Follow the instructions below if you are experiencing connection issues or if you
intend to share your recordings with other ReplayTVs.

1
If you are not manually specifying the IP address on ReplayTV, verify that DHCP is enabled on your router. You should specify
the IP address of ReplayTV if you are sharing recordings. Some routers will allow you to automatically assign the same IP
address to devices like ReplayTV. It is recommended that you enable this feature for ReplayTV, if it is available to you.

Verify that DNS is enabled on your router and the proper DNS entries have been added. These would have been provided by
your ISP. If the IP address of the router is specified (this is the external IP address), double-check the DNS entries from your
ISP.

Verify that the router does not block ReplayTV’s IP address. This setting can normally be found in the advanced section under
“access” controls. Some routers have a table listing which IP addresses are allowed to use the router for Internet access.

Verify that TCP ports 53 (DNS), 123 (NTP), 80 (HTTP) are open. Your router documentation should indicate whether or not
those ports are blocked by default.
