'Automatic config': DHCP hostname needed? (#4991)
Some cable networks require additional authentication before they will issue an IP address automatically. The authentication can be one of either a HOSTNAME (computer name) or a HOSTNAME and DOMAIN NAME .. You can obtain these from your existing working PC by inspection of the network properties configuration screen.. The PS2 Adapter supports the entry of a DHCP HOSTNAME in the automatic setting dialog, but no entry of a DOMAIN NAME. The solution to avoid these problems is to obtain a good home router, and then have the router deal with the issue.. All routers allow specification of the domain name and hostname in the use DHCP setup screens. feedback form
