Hey everyone.
I just bought a Acer Revo R3610 and yesterday i installed XBMC Live. I have a networking problem though.
My setup is like this:
My computer contains the media i want to stream. That computer and the Acer Revo are connected through a switch. Just computer to Acer Revo, no internet access on the wire/router.
I then have a wireless router on another floor of my house that i want to get internet access from.
I have managed to change etc/network/interfaces to use static ip and i am now able to stream content from my computer to my Acer Revo over the wired connection. 1080p streaming worked like a charm
BUT, without being able to get internet access through the Revo'a wireless connection i wont be able to use the library-mode with information from eg. imdb.com and the like.
Setting this up in Windows is a breeze, but streaming 1080p did not work without alot of stuttering in Windows.
Can anyone here help a Linux-newbie like me get my wireless connection up and running along side the wired connection in XBMC for Linux?
