Got it to connect using the wifi adapter. Am I doing something wrong with the ethernet connection?
Checked my router and it doesn't show up on 'wired connections' (only 2 connections) but when I put my T5 back on, it shows in 'wired connections' (shows 3 connections)

When you got it to connect using the wifi adapter- did you have your ethernet cat-5 cable hooked up to the back. Just curious cause I'm also not connecting to server. It says connection-failed. I did put the right info. into network settings also!

Yeah...When I tried the wifi adapter, I never unplugged the cable.

But we both can't get the ethernet to work. Would rather hard wired. Is there something that needs to be done for the ethernet to work?

Nope....Only tried the adapter after the ethernet wasn't working. Maybe do a factory reset on it?

Just an update....Im waiting for a coax repair kit as I broke the cable disconnecting my T5.

Well, factory reset did nothing except make me change all the TP's again. Anyone have an idea of why it won't connect with ethernet? It has the flickering light where the cable plugs in which I figure to mean it's communicating.

Disconnect ALL Other devices running on router, and reboot router and try the Box/receiver ALL BY IT'S SELF WIRED
See if it will connect then, you may have a IP conflict, What Brand of Router/Modem are you using ?
Might want to try different Router etc.

I've got a TP Link AC5400 gaming router. I did try rebooting with the ethernet connected but still the same. Was thinking about the settings but if the wifi works, all good for me. I also have an extra wifi adapter if the one that came with it craps out.
Trying a different router is not an option for me.

To get a clean IP interface or config, need to unplug "EVERYTHING" including Receiver and REBOOT Router
so it will start A-New, once that is done then plug the Junxbox back into router by itself nothing else hooked up (make sure Receiver is set to DHCP not Static) Then Hopefully the router will assign a New IP to the Receiver & it will work ?
Also recheck Network settings info (No mistakes) on the receiver, did your Donation expire ?

you can by using static
login to your router to see what's available
