For customers that do not have a router
(Procedure for manually configuring the IP address)
If you have no router on your network and connect your LinkTheater directly to your PC, you'll need to
set the IP address manually. To do this, you'll need to determine the IP address and subnet mask for
your computer. Only configure the LinkTheater's IP address manually if you have a good reason for
doing so, e.g. you are not using a router, or your network has no DHCP server.
The numbers and letters that are displayed on the screen will differ according to your environment.
