Re: How to make a static IP for Chumby Classic

Is this a question?

If so, you set a static IP when you configure the network - when it asks for address allocation, select "Manual" instead of "Automatic".  It will then prompt you for an IP, mask, gateway IP, and DNS IPs.

Thanks Duane!

I am using Chumby Classic, I tried the setup procedure again, can't find the option through the screen.

Is there a way to change some file in /psp/ ?

Thanks.

Depending on your wireless router features, you may be able to assign the Chumby a static DHCP.  I do that with many of my devices so if they ever leave the house I can still connect to wifi easily without changing settings.
