8.2 	Network Information
Understanding the Network Installation
The Dreamy Geek can be connected to internet using any Ethernet plug available in your house. The Ethernet 
plug must be itself connected to a switch or rooter with an available internet access. Generally, the internet access 
is granted from a wealthy rooter connection. If you have trouble connecting to internet double check with your ISP

(Internet Service Provider) that your connection is working. If you don’t have Ethernet plugs in your house, your 
ISP would generally lend a modem used to log to the internet network. The modem has rooter capabilities and  
Ethernet plugs that can be used to connect the Dreamy Geek to the internet.
Automatic or Fixed IP Address
The default setting is DHCP and it lets the rooter decides which IP is assigned to the Dreamy Geek. That means 
that the IP address of this unit is not fixed and may change after a reboot. Therefore, the access to this unit will 
use the authentication name on the network.
If  you  plan  to  connect  to  your  projector  using  programs  that  require  a  fixed  IP,  you  should  set  manually  the 
Network  settings  in  the  menu:  Home  Screen  >  Settings  >  Net  and  Location  Settings  >  Wire  Settings  >Manual. 
Make sure to use a valid IP address and to set the same subnet set as defined by the rooter network settings.
