« on: March 06, 2009, 03:52:55 PM »

go to router. on back of router, put the ethernet plug into port #1. this is the gaming port.

now go to  E under the address bar type 192.168.0.1 . go in to router, go to port forwarding, under name, name device. then under ip address type an address of 100 - 199 , just make sure your not using the same ip address as your pc. now under ports to open type 80,8080,27177,27178. at top of page hit save , it will ask to reboot now. hit reboot now . when done close E.

 now go to dvr go to networks , then go to network services, change automatic to manual, hit connect now, when done go to advanced setup. for the ip address type the same one used under port forwarding, subnet is 255.255.255.0, default gateway is 192.168.0.1, dns 71.243.0.12, hit connect now.

you should get congratulations you are now connected to directv. you have to manually connect with the dlink, it will not add these figures automatically. good luck!

dns 71.243.0.12

So no matter who your ISP is you should use Verizon's DNS server?
