Hi,


I built a media center (myth and boxee) based on intrepid for a friends
christmas gift this year and helped set it up last night.  Now, Ive
never encountered anything such as this at home, and to be honest it
stumped me, I gave up around midnight and brought the box home to test
it today.

setup goes like this, TW cable modem>  wireless router with 4 eth ports>
intrepid box connected via wire.  several laptops were using wireless so
it definately works. booted intrepid and it would not go past bringing
up network.  checked cable, rebooted, would not go past network.
changed to different cable, rebooted, wont boot past network. rebooted
router and modem. changed ports on back of router, tried all of them and
rebooted, still no network.  plugged in via same cable with a windows
laptop, got an ip.  I brought the box home, connected it to ethernet,
and it booted fine.

any clue before I start looking at how to find a web config for the
router?  in my book, thats the first place to be looking, ive ruled out
everything else? or did I?
