Majik DS Internet Connection Question.

Majik DS Internet Connection Question.
Hi,

This may be a simple question! I will be moving house and it will be without internet connection for a few days. Can I still use my Majik DS when it's not connected to internet/router? (Will be using switch).

Thanks in advance.

Yes, as long as you have something acting as a DHCP server and your NAS attached to the same switch as the DS. You obviously won't be able to use DS Radio without internet connection.

Hi 'troll,

Sorry, what is a DHCP server? Will be using PC's hard drive (no NAS) to switch to DS.

RE: Majik DS Internet Connection Question.
Do you have a wireless modem/router from your current house which you're taking with you, and just waiting for a new connection?

If so, it should work fine provided that you still connect up your PC and DS via the router.

Main System: Renew DS > Exotik+DA/D > A2200/D > 242s (mk2)
& A3200/D > 106c, 104c's (using Linn Silvers & K400, on Hutter rack)

Dining Room: Sneaky DS > Majik 109s (using "K200")
Bedroom: Majik DS > Tivoli Radio Model 3 + Companion Speaker

Hi,

Yes, I have a Thomson 02 router which I can take with me. I take it that I just connect the router while I wait for internet service and that will work ok? If so this is great news, thank you for that.

What you suggest will work.

To demonstrate my SDS to friends I took my NAS/Router/iPodTouch/laptop and connected them up to the SDS as normal apart from connecting to the internet. It all worked apart from internet radio.
