Couple of small tips to allow quicker rebooting.

1. unplug from wall and press the power button on front panel. Then plug
back in and all will be well.

2. EVEN better way (as someone posted a while back) is turn Rio/DDAR off,
then back on and while it says searching for music press the menu button.
This will force a reboot from scratch.

Are you running MS DHCP or just the Rio software.

In MS DHCP you will need to create a reservation for the MAC address for
the Rio, but I suspect you are using the Rio software to handle ip's

If you only have one Rio/DDAR then in the Audio Receiver Manager menu
click, Tools - IP Configuration

If Auto configuration is ticked then this what range is setup ?

i.e. First address - last address make this the same address i.e.
192.168.0.129, then the software can ONLY give that to your Rio/DDAR.

If you have more than one then you NEED to run a third party DHCP
service. (MS or others) and create reservations
