I have decided to follow the directions i found here:
and would like any ideas to perfect this setup
http://www.missingremote.com/guide/ceton-infinitv-network-tuner-wizard-access-infinitv-tuners-multiple-pcs
they work great for 1 tuner
so i am try the following 🙂
I have installed 2 ceton tuners on my server 2008 R2 ,
1.both show up in server manager, without error ,
2.have set both to support bridging in server manager
3. under network sonnections i have renamed them ceton 1 and ceton 2
4. under Network i see 2 tuners
a. so i went to the tuners device webpages
ceton1: ip 192.168.200.1
ceton2: 192.168.201.2
b. unchecked defualt IP settings
set static ip’s to just outside my dhcp range
ceton1 192.168.1.201
ceton2 192.168.1.202
mask 255.255.255.0
dhcp client isnt checked
5. doesnt want to complete the static sets, circles next to explorer tabs keep spinning
6. went to step 10 of guide above and chose Ceton 1 and Ceton 2 and a physical Intel Pro 82576 gigabit nic and bridged the 3 of them
I will be using the tuners on VM and a stand alone media center on the network
