Anybody,

I have Samsung BDP1200 and I'm trying to install firmware vs 2.4 via ethernet. I have Comcast cable. I took the Lan cable from the PC and plugged into the back of the player with the other end connected to the router. The player says network not properly set up. I go to network setup and it asks for IP address. There are 12 spaces. My IP address is only 10 digits with three dots. Are the dots part of the address? If so how do you account for them on the player there is no choice for dots just numbers. Once that is entered correctly there is a space for Primary DNS below. Does that need to be filled in also. Samsung manual is worthless.

I feel like an idiot, this is really frustrating. I may just run down to WalMart and buy a PS3.
