PBO as NAS/FTP in Network via Crossover/direct connection to the PC (without router)

[Butzemann]

Hey guys,
i've been looking for a solution for a long time now. And now i have it!

First, i tested on windows 7 and the Player has the unofficial Firmware Mede8er v4.0.4.

1. I tested the network cable connection between Notebook and Player:

The Notebook have the follow IPs:

LAN -> ipv4

IP: 192.168.0.1
Sub: 255.255.255.0
Gat: 192.168.0.1

The Player have the follow configuration (my special):

Network:

NAS Mode = ON
Host Name = mede8er
Remote Control = ON
FTP Mode = OFF
Wired Lan Setup = ON* -> Fix IP (manuel)
-> IP : 192.168.0.2
-> SUB: 255.255.255.0
-> GAT: 192.168.0.1
-> DNS: 192.168.0.1
Wireless Setup = ON

2. Test connection

Open the console on win7 (cmd.exe) and type "ping 192.168.0.2" (the player ip) and u must get a reply with 3 lines and at the end TTL=64 (TTL=128 is the computer himself)

3. Account on win7

I made a account on Win7 for the Patriot Box as normal User, i called Mede8er and with a password what u want

- now i made a Folder on my HDD with the name PBO:
-> then right click
-> Share with
-> Specific People
-> now choose the Mede8er account and "add"
-> and now u can give him rights, when u want (read, write oder whatever)

Now u have a folder for the Player, and u can logged in with the Player on your computer with this account (Mede8er and password as login data)

4. Test streaming

I put a videofile in the pbo folder on my computer. With the patriot player i logged in to my notebook on the pbo folder.

I have a connection with ~ 8MB/s and now u can stream or copy what u want.
I have now 2 connections (direct lan connection to the pc = ~8MB/s and wlan connection to the router = ~900KB/s) and it works perfect

Have fun

P.S. Sorry for my english, i'm german
