Power cycling your network should be attempted if you are experiencing any network connection issues between your Fyre BoXXX and the internet. Should the below steps not correct your network issue, the issue may lie in your router settings, click here.
Network Connection Issues
- Set-top box is unable to pull an IP address in the "network configuration" menu at the Enter Pin screen
- Test connection fails in the "network configuration" menu at the Enter Pin screen
Obtaining an IP address - Cable internet
The issue of a Fyre BoXXX not able to pull an IP address in the network configuration menu of the set-top box usually results from a connection not able to be established with your router / modem. If you are not receiving an IP address or are receiving a 169.xxx.xxx.xx address then your Fyre BoXXX is not configuring itself properly and communicating with the modem / router.
Proceed to the "ENTER Pin" screen on the Fyre BoXXX's User Interface > "network settings" > leave the "Automatic" (DHCP) checked > hit apply. If this option corrects the issue you will receive a "DCHP configuration has been set successfully" message. If this does not result in a "DCHP configuration has been set successfully" message proceed to the steps below.
1) Remove the power from the Cable modem and the router if present and leave everything unplugged.
2) Remove the Ethernet cable and power cord from the back of the Fyre BoXXX.
3) Plug in and power on the router if present and allow it to reconfigure itself. If no router is present, plug in and power on the Fyre BoXXX before proceeding to step 4.
4) Plug in the cable modem and allow it to reconfigure itself before accessing the Fyre BoXXX.
5) Proceed to the "network configuration" option on the Enter PIN screen > keep the "automatic (DHCP)" option checked > hit the "apply" button to reconfigure the network settings, if this option corrects the issue you will receive a "DCHP configuration has been set successfully" message. If this does not correct your issue proceed to the "Reconfiguring Your Network Settings - DSL / Cable" section below.
Note: Some modems have a recessed reset or reboot button that will need to be pushed in order to reset the modem configuration settings. The recessed button may not be able to be pushed with your finger and will require a paper clip or pin tip to push the button. If you have a network configuration of modem > box and your attempts to power cycle the network are still not resulting in the box pulling an IP address, you will need to look for the recessed button in order to reset your modem settings instead of a modem power cycle.
