OK result of ifconfig :-
second line of o/p
wlan0 inet addr:192.168.1.3 Bcast: 192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0.
Are you by any chance connecting your T2 to the network after powering it up ? If so try connecting it to the network before powering up.
Just realised you are connected to network using a wireless dongle. Would you mind posting the whole of the output from the "ifconfig" command
humax# ifconfig

Hi raydon, yes T2 connected via wireless, above is dump of ifconfig.
Hi welly, I've been in touch with af123, the author of the custom firmware package for the HDR Fox T2 regarding your problem. He has replied with the following
192.0.2.100 is the address that is assigned to the ethernet interface before it has been initialised, (IIRC wlan0 gets 192.0.2.101 initially)
The /sbin/modinit script always puts the address of eth0 into the hosts file and therefore doesn't work properly with a wireless dongle. I'll come up with a fix for that!
Thanks for letting me know.
Hi Raydon,
thanks for your help and feedback.
Nice to have an answer, if not a solution!
I must have tried to install and uninstall Samba a dozen times - ah well looking forward to some good night sleeps.

Welly, would you mind posting the output of the route command from your Humax?
I have an updated firmware ready with a fix in it but just want to check one last thing.
Thanks
Hi af123,
here is dump of route command. Will check out this site later - electricity co. are due to interrupt supply today.
humax# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0
default voyager.home 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0
Thanks - that looks good. I'll release a fixed firmware version tomorrow.
Customised firmware 1.14 should fix this problem for you.
Hi there af123,
installed your updated firmware today, I started off by reinstalling the correct Humax firmware and then installed the updated firmware on top of that. All seemed to install ok. Have just tried to map to Humax using \\humax\Media and rxd error message from Windows "pinged 192.0.2.200 no response" so I tried mapping using \\192.168.1.3\Media and connected ok. So I have include some dumps based on the commands you asked me use before.
I think the previous "mystery" IP address was 192.0.2.100.
