I have my hr20-700 wired to my network. I can see the DVR with my Network Magic program; I can ping it but I can't connect to internet. I have my McAfee firewall turned off (as well as Windows firewall). I gave up trying to connect wirelessly so I bought a cat 5 wire and connected directly.

I have read hundreds of pages on this site but still can't get connected. I can share files between my desktop which is connected to my DLink- N router and my Laptop(wirelessly). It appears that my network is performing properly.

Is there a simple setup procedure for connecting the HR20-700 by wire to the internet. Everything seems to be working but no connection.

I have WMP 11 and Tiversity installed but can't get connected to Internet. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong??
 
Finally fixed problem. The router settings had Secure Spot checked. This apparently is an additional layer of security that had been blocking the DVR. Unchecked it and now I'm connected.
