Phillips Net Tv

[dlinkla]

I have a phillips net tv

However I am unable to connect to it, I have gone into my router settings and disabled the firewall while I tried to connect

That didnt work (I went back and enabled it)

Im stuck all it keeps saying is "Phillips server not found"

I have cleared Net Tv cookies and tried to connect at whihc point it just says connecting forever .

Do I need to load software ?

Any ideas

I know nothing of these TV's, but do you have to enable DHCP somewhere in the TV's network settings? Do you need to enable Upnp on your router? Is it failing via a wifi dongle in the TV, can you try a direct cabled connection to the router?

[dlinkla]

My connection is via a cable

I've updated all software

Still nothing

[nibblitz]

In your Router settings do you have a section that shows the DHCP releases, can you identify if your TV is there, if it is, can you ping the TV's allocated IP address from a PC? Where the cable goes into the RJ45 socket on the TV, can you see little green/yellow LED's blinking away to indicate network activity?

You say you've updated all software? What software is this?

[dlinkla]

Not sure about the dchp release. I don't know how to check if tv is showing.

The software is from Phillips website for my tv

lol, his TV isnt connecting to the online TV service provided by Philips, he says he is not able to check if his TV is even connecting to his own network as he says he does not know how to, throwing advise about setting up a dlna server is not going to help.. :-)

OP, have you actually got your TV connected to your router with an ethernet cable? If yes, great, next thing, in your TV's Menu system there should be a section to do with Network Settings, have you made sure DHCP is enabled?
