Used Infinitv4 PCIe in new computer

Why can't he just do a Network Reset from within WMC? Like Post #26 above^^

Is Network Tuners even installed inside WMC?

He can, but depending on the problem, it may or may not work. I tried it numerous times to no effect. Certainly can't hurt to try.

Then there is also Bridging to NO, and reboot

I've tried, it doesn't work. It just unbridges the connection and reverts the card back to a autoassigned IP of 169.254.176.73 and then the diagnostic tools doesn't detect the card

Forget about the Ceton Software for a minute. After you do the Network Reset from WMC, Open up Network Connections on your PC. The path is Network and Sharing Center/Change Adapter Settings. What do you see?

This is what I have it is bridged to get it working:

Then after I do the reset in WMC:

Details doesn't "Do" anything. Open up the same screen again like this. Hit the Alt button on the keyboard go to Advanced/Advanced Settings

It looks like when you take it off bridge it is going to the incorrect subnet 255.255.0.0 it should be 255.255.255.0, In the connection properties try setting IPv4 to 192.168.200.2 and subnet of 255.255.255.0 and default gateway 192.168.200.1 in network connection properties->IPv4 properties.

Change Settings/Configure/SupportBridging/No, click OK

Don't do anything else.....

Just go to the start button and reboot.

Also on the Network and Sharing Change Adapter page, click on Advanced and then check bindings. Make sure you Ceton is ONLY bound to Printer & File Sharing and (with ip4 and ip6) and Microsoft Network for the same two. If there is anything else listed for the Ceton Card and you have not bridged it for use on another machine, uncheck it and reboot.

^^This is what John told me what to do. Check it out! Let us know what it says.

nothing changed

Wadaya think CW, try changing the mask next?

I forget... can you get the InfiniTV recognized in the Diag Tool when it's bridged? If so, you should be able to get into the card via the "Go to InfiniTV Device Webpage" button on the Devices tab in the Tool. If you can, did you try changing the Network Settings (linked to on the System page)? If you try making changes to the Network Settings - which are stored on the InfiniTV, not in Windows - do the changes stick? If they don't stick, then the card is defective, and you'll never get them to change. You might still be able to use the tuners and watch/record TV. I know that's not ideal, but it might stop you running in circles.

That's the situation I was in, and yours sounds suspiciously similar.

Sure it is worth a shot.

If that does not work you can also rerun the wizard setting up the bridge. Make sure that in the network tuner wizard that all tuners are set to the HTPC and no other PCs. Then reboot PC, then run the wizard again and reset to factory defaults. Maybe uninstalling the device & drivers will help?

I had this problem before but I don't think it was completely clear what I did to fix it... I did everything, different PCI-E slots try setting it to factory defaults over a different bridged computer.

[Crash2009]

Lets get another ScreenCap like this...Drag the first window to the left, before you open the next, line em up so we can see them all.

[JayZe73]

I tried again step 47 and this is what I got now. No auto config numbers but blue light is still flashing fast and can not access the webpage

[JayZe73]

[cwinfield]

The DHCP should be enabled & DNS should all be blank... What happens if you try doing a reset now :/

me too, I was chasing my tail for hours, then it just fell into place, I was so dizzy I couldn't remember what I did.

[Crash2009]

I think mine might have fell into place with a cold boot, remove power cord-discharge residual using the power button-plug cord back in- start it up
