Hi Estapens,

Have you tried re-booting your router?

Hi mate

Check the connection cable to be sure that all it's ok and then check the network settings in your box.

Hi mate. That address is not the same for all box in the world. Which address your box have is depended on how your home network is set up. If you have always used 192.168.0.14/8080 to go in to your receiver but not working anymore, it might be that your receiver has got a new IP address after a reboot example, which will be something like 192.168.0.XX. Go in to your receiver network settings and see what ip address you have, and then try with that IP address. IF you want to have the same IP address on your box all the time, turn of the DHCP if it is turned on.

In windows command (cmd) mode type ipconfig /all that should give you a list of
the assigned ip addresses given to devices on your home network or you can
use the default gateway address in your browser to access the router then see
what devices are attached and their ip addresses also there you will be able to
fix the ip address of your device so on router reboot it stays the same for next
time.

Re: Media Link Black Panther IP question

just want to correct you mahrkpat on something. Ipconfig /all will not give you a list of what device in your netwok has what IP addresse. It just give you detailed network information about the device you are running the command on. IF you instead type netview in cmd, you might find your receiver hostname like DM800, and then just ping DM800 to get the ip addresse. But as mahrkpat informed you, you can also just go via your router and check.
