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.
1 Go 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.
2 Uncheck the box next to Automatic IP address configuration (DHCP). The information in
the fields will clear, which releases the “automatic” IP settings.
3 Enter 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 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.
