Overview

The LocationFree TV’s NetAV function enables you to enjoy video entertainment content

while you’re away from home. Using a public wireless access (also known as a hotspot) or a

wired LAN, such as in a hotel room, you can watch TV and even control your VCR or DVD

player in your home.

✍The network system used in most office locations include firewalls that may restrict an open port

required to use NetAV.

Step 1

Check Your Current Network Set Up

Network

connection

You must have a broadband connection (DSL, cable modem, etc.) with uplink and downlink

speeds of at least 300 kbps. The more uplink bandwidth you have available, the better your

NetAV performance.

Internet Protocol

(IP) Address

If you do not already have a fixed IP address1, you will need to register with a Dynamic

Domain Name Service (DDNS)2. Step 2 explains how to register with one such provider.

Router setting and

Firewall

Your home router must be configured for DMZ4or Port Forwarding5to allow secure access

through your firewall. You must enable use of a port for LocationFree TV (typically 5021).

✍For best performance a premium bandwidth service is recommended. Contact your ISP for details.

✍You cannot use NetAV through a dial-up connection.

✍A public fixed IP address3may be used in lieu of a dynamic DNS service. Contact your ISP for details.

✍You cannot use a private IP address (an address assigned by a home router) for NetAV.

1 Typically your Internet Service Provider (ISP) assigns an IP address to you when you sign up for service. However, this IP

address is “dynamic,” meaning that it may change. Most ISPs offer, for a monthly premium, a “fixed IP address” that is

assigned only to you. If you have a fixed IP address, you do not need to sign up with a Dynamic Domain Name Service

(DDNS) to use NetAV.

2 A DDNS lets you tie a Host/Domain name to a dynamic IP address. If you do not have a Host/Domain name and your

dynamic IP address is changed while you are using NetAV, your connection will drop.

3 Every device connected to the Internet must have either a public or private IP address. Public IP addresses are assigned

to a home router or to a PC when either is connected directly to the global Internet. A Private IP address is assigned

between a home router and another device, typically a PC, on a home network.

4 DMZ stands for “demilitarized zone,” a military term meaning a buffer area between two enemies. On some routers the

term is used to represent a buffer area (outside a firewall) between a trusted private network and an un-trusted external

network, such as the public Internet.

5Port forwarding offers a means of transferring unsecured data from TCP/IP applications through a secure connection.

The transfer of unsecured data takes place by means of “tunneling” through a secure connection established by setting

up port forwarding between two devices, in this case the LocationFree Base Station and the LocationFree Monitor.

Step 2

Obtain a Dynamic Domain Name

If you do not already have a fixed IP address, you will need to register with a dynamic DNS

service such as Dynamic Network Services Inc., a provider of dynamic DNS and other

network services. You can register with www.dyndns.org, as described below.

Registering with a

Dynamic Domain

Name Service

(DDNS)

1Check to make sure the LocationFree TV is connected to the Internet (in Home/Wireless

mode) A.

2Using the Web function, enter the URL http://www.dyndns.org/ and then select Sign Up

Now A.

Settings > Monitor

http://www.dyndns.org/

LFX1.fm Page 6 Friday, February 4, 2005 7:04 PM

3Read the Use Policy, and then check the Agree box A. Next, enter your Username B,

E-mail address Cand Password (up to 16 characters) D. (Make a note of your Username

and Password, which you’ll use to configure the LocationFree TV, described on the next

page). Then select Create Account E.

An Account Created confirmation page appears and a confirmation e-mail will be sent to

you.

4Go to http://www.dyndns.org again, enter your Username and Password, and then select

the Login button.

5Select the Account tab. Your Account page is displayed.

Under Your Hosts & Zones, select Dynamic DNS (Add Host) A.

6The New Dynamic DNS page is displayed. Enter your host name Aand choose

dnsalias.com from the dropdown menu B. Leave all other fields as is and then select Add

Host C.

You are now registered.

Make a note of the Host/Domain name, which you’ll need to configure your LocationFree

TV on the next page.

✍If you do not receive a confirmation e-mail, send an e-mail to support@dyndns.org.

Step 3

Configure LocationFree TV for DDNS

1Make sure your LocationFree TV is connected in the Home/Wireless mode.

2In the Settings menu, go to Base station > NetAV Settings > Dynamic DNS.

Enter the following information in the appropriate field.

3Select the Back button and again select Dynamic DNS. Check that the data is showing as

entered. If the data has changed, repeat step 2 on this page. Then check the Current status

field as follows:

AUser ID Enter the Username you registered in DynDNS

BPassword Enter the Password you registered in DynDNS

CURL to update DNS information If your registered Host/Domain name is

YourName.dnsalias.com, enter

http://members.dyndns.org/nic/update?hostname=

YourName.dnsalias.com

DURL to detect IP address Enter http://checkip.dyndns.org:8245/

ESet button Select the Set button

Success Your Dynamic DNS is successfully configured. The system is automatically

checking IP addresses currently assigned to your base station. Wait at least 10

minutes before going to Step 4 on page 9.

Failure The Dynamic DNS configuration failed or communication to the server failed.

Try repeating Steps 1-3 on pages 5 to 8. The update process may take as long as

10 minutes at the DDNS provider. Wait 10 minutes before trying again

Updating The system is still trying to correctly configure. Try waiting a few more minutes;

the current status will soon indicate “success” or “failure.” If the Current status

field does not change, repeat Step 2 on page 6.

Settings > Base station > NetAV Settings > Dynamic DNS

Step 4

Configure LocationFree TV for Your Home Router

In this section you will specify or “lock” an IP address from your router to the LocationFree

Base Station.

1Go to Settings > Base station > Internet Connections > LAN (DHCP/Manual IP address

settings). Make sure the box next to Automatic IP address configuration (DHCP) is

checked and write down on a piece of paper the information in all of the fields.

2Uncheck the box next to Automatic IP address configuration (DHCP). The information in

the fields will clear, which releases the “automatic” IP settings.

3Enter again the information you wrote down in step 1—with one exception. For the IP

address, be sure to change the last two digits to 64. So, if the IP address your router

provided is 192.168.0.5, then enter or “assign” 192.168.0.64.1

4Select the Set button to lock in the IP address and other important information on this

screen.

5Press the Index button and select Web to go to the Internet. Make sure you are able to

access the Internet by viewing any web page. If you are able to access the Internet, the

settings are correct.

Check this check box

Settings > Base station > Internet Connection > LAN (DHCP/Manual IP address settings)

Continued

1 Why the number 64? Most routers using DHCP assign the last numbers of an IP address between 2-50. The number 64

is safely out of this range. Note that any two-digit number outside of the DHCP range should work.

6Configure the base station NetAV settings to send video from the base station to a remote

computer in the Enable/Disable NetAV screen, as described below.

7Configure the monitor to receive video from the base station in the NetAV Settings screen,

as described below.

Set this to Enable

Enter Port Number 5021

Enter the Host/Domain name

that you acquired on page 7,

step 61
