Right - here`s the setup.
Internet on a D-link router
Ethernet connection to an 8 port switch
PC hardwired to switch
Lappy hardwired to switch. (can also wireless to router if required)
2 separate network printers hardwired into switch
Wired connection through powerline ethernet (222Mps) unit, to Sky box (provides Anytime+ on demand HD)
I thought I would need to configure the Sky box line, to lower its priority, so that use of the tinternet from the computers won`t be affected if the Skybox is streaming data.
But I don`t seem to be able to access the 8 port switch via its address. I can talk to the router, but it can`t see *through* the switch, to where the end devices are connected.
Am I worrying needlessly? Or is there something I need to configure?
Thanks
