Daer All,
I bought this TV last week, all other seems to be as expected.
My problem is, that the tv does not send reliable a DHCP request to the Router "FritzBox Fon 7140 SL".
After switching on Router and TV sometimes it happens that there is no IP Adress negotiated between
Router and TV. I tested it with wireshark running and filtering to "bootp".
I disconnected the Networkcable from the TV and reconnected it (did this several times). I figured out, that
from approx. 7 times, 2 times the TV does not send the DHCP request. to get closer to the issue I connected the tv to a little SOHO switch. On this switch I can see that the connection (Layer 1) is ok when the Led goes on on the connected port.
In the case of no DHCP Request I saw that the led on the switch port stays dark. I tried also other routers which have
DHCP enabled with same result.
Now I switched TV to use static IP instead. I tried to enter static IP address in the configuration dialog on TV.
The annoying thing: I entered the IP adress, moved to next fields mask, Gatway, dns. now i moved back to see IP
which I entered previoisly, but field has default settings again (000.000.000.000)
So the static IP is never stored on the tv.
Now I have a unreliable DHCP behavour and cannot use static IP.
btw. I am using latest firmware - Version: 000.014.093.000
Is this a known Issue or any workaround available?
thanks in advance,
gmanxl
