How do I Setup a fixed IP on OpenELEC on my Raspberry Pi?
Setting up a Fixed IP address on OpenELEC on your Raspberry Pi is actually fairly straight forward, but you will need to get some information before we start.
You will need your Subnet Mask.
The IP address of you router.
The IP address of your ISP’s DNS servers.
The IP range of your router / Access points DHCP server.
How to get the above information.
There are a few ways to get this information, but the simplest is either via logging into your router and getting the information or from your installation of OpenELEC before you setup a fixed IP.
Via OpenELEC
The below assumes you are connecting to your router correctly via DHCP e.g. everything works.
Navigate to SYSTEM > Sytem Info.
Move down the menu to Network and note the following items
IP address:
Subnet Mask:
Gateway:
The DHCP range and DNS servers will still need to be sourced from your router.
Via your Router
The actual method will depend on your router, but generally speaking once you have logged into your router you will need to find the status tab. This should give you the information you need.
DNS Servers
Within the routers status tab you should see DNS 1 & DNS 2 labels with IP addresses next to them (see sample below) these are the DNS servers you will need for setting up the fixed IP Address.
DHCP range
Again the actual place to find this will depend on your router but generally you will find the DHCP settings under basic setup or network settings.
On the right is the DHCP setup section on a linksys router. the Starting IP Address is 192.168.1.100 and the max number of users is 50 that means the DHCP range is between 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.150.
So any Fixed IP addresses will need to be higher or lower than that range, I would suggest using the IP’s between 192.168.1.49 and 192.168.1.99 for equipment requiring a fixed IP address.
Setup Fixed IP
Navigate to SYSTEM > OpenELEC.
If you want to setup a fixed IP for the build-in network socket on your PI select Network 1.
If you want to setup a fixed IP for a secondary network interface i.e. a wireless dongle select Network 2.
For instructions on setting up Wifi see our recent post here.
In the selected Network tab,
Move down to Static IP address and press enter
now enter the information you got earlier.
Enter the Fixed IP address you would like the PI to use.
This should be outside of your Router / Access Points DHCP range.
Enter the Subnet mask
Enter the Gateway IP – this will be the IP address of your router.
Enter the DNS server 1
Enter the DNS server 2
Click Save.
Reboot your pi.
Go into SYSTEM > System Info > Network and check that the PI has connected to your router / access point and is connected to the internet.
Thats it …….
If it does not work check you setting and make sure you have rebooted your machine, if it still does not work you may need to use an external USB powered hub as your WiFi dongle may require more power than the Pi’s USB ports can supply.
If you would like help with your Raspberry PI, computer or laptop then please contact us or visit our IT Support Page.

Below are some basic and straightforward instructions to get Live TV set-up on your Media centre, computer or Raspberry PI in just a few minutes.
How do I setup Live TV on OpenELEC?
The below instructions assume you have a media box, Raspberry PI or pc etc setup with OpenELEC Frodo or later and have a Linux compatible TV tuner card or usb stick connected.
If you live in the UK and want HD freeview channels I would recommend the USB plugin “PCTV NanoStick PCTV Systems DVB-T2 290e nanoStick HD TV Tuner” this is made by Pinnacle / Hauppauge (note – OpenELEC will recognise it as a Sony CSD282, but this is ok)
Just follow the below guide to get it up and running;
First you must install the Backend server – this is what controls the TV tuner card, grabs the channel etc ….
This add on needs to be installed from with in the XBMC Add-on Manager
Go to – Settings > Add-ons > Get add-ons > OpenELEC Mediacenter OS Add-ons > Services
Select tvheadend
Click Install
Reboot your machine.
Second you need to install the front end
Go to – Settings > Live TV
Select Enabled.
A small message box will appear telling you need to install at least one PVR Client
Select OK.
Scroll down the list and select “tvheadend”
Click Enable.
Go back to the home screen
Reboot the machine.
Last you need to setup your tuner card on the backend server – this is done via a web interface.
Select the drop down menu and choose your TV tuner.
Enable “Autodetect muxes” and “Idle scanning”
Click Save.
On the left you will see a button marked “Add DVB Network by location”. – Click it
Select your country
Select the Transmitter that is nearest for you.
If your in the UK you can use the website http://www.ukfree.tv to find your transmitter.
Click ”Add DVB Network”.
Wait for “Muxes awaiting initial scan” to become 0
Click the “Map DVB services to channels” button.
Click on the “channel / DVB” button, you should see a list of all the channels your box has found.
If there are no channels showing give it a few minutes to finish scanning.
If there are still no channels showing check that you have selected the correct transmitter.
If some of the channels are missing you might need to add a Multiplex manually – for example the UK crystal palace transmitter is currently missing the HD multiplex, you have to add this manually.
Go to > Configuration, DVB Inputs > Multiplexes
Click “Add mux(es) manually”
Enter the details of the missing mux.
Enter the Frequency of the e.g. for the crystal palace HD multiplex enter 546000.
Leave all the other options as Auto.
Click add.
Reboot the machine.
That is it, your device should now be up and running if you go to to your home screen you should see a Live TV button – go into this section to watch live tv or setup recordings.

Hi,
You recommend the nanStick 290e at the beginning but then refer to the 292e which I’m lead to believe is a tripleStick and the Linux drivers are not in the current kernel as they are under development.
Yes, you are right, Amazon has updated their product listing.
You need to get the 290E not the 292E, which as of writing is not supported on the current linux kernels.
They are under development and should be available in Kernel 3.16 and greater or for separate download soon.

Below are some easy and straight forward instructions to clone your USB Memory Stick.
USB Memory Stick
The below instructions assume you are using a windows based machine and use a great little utility called HDD-Raw-Copy-Tool this can be used to create an exact low-level, sector-by-sector device duplication you can clone SATA, IDE,
SAS, SCSI, SSD drives, USB sticks, SD, MMC and CompactFlash cards to an img file or to another device..
We would recommend you get the standalone version as this means you don’t need to install the program and will run straight from the download.
Pop your USB Memory Stick into your PC or laptop.
Start up the program.
Highlight your USB Memory Stick and click continue .
Highlight the device you want to copy to, or select if you want to write to an image file.
If you want to write to an image file to copy to a USB Memory Stick at a later date – Double click on the FILE option and choose the location and name for your image file.
Click Continue.
You will now get a display showing your previous choices, check them and then double check them – If you write to the wrong drive e.g. Your main hard disk your computer will be very poorly!!
Click start.
The program will now clone your USB Memory Stick.
That is it, you now have a clone or an img file of your USB Memory Stick. If you created an image file this can now be used to make multiple clones.
To go the opposite way e.g. Burn an image to USB Memory Stick, choose an image file in the first window and then an USB Memory Stick in the second.

If you are using Google Analytics on your website then you will want to know whether the visitors being counted are genuine external visitors to your site or if you and your colleagues are being included in the count. This can be especially important if you frequently visit your own site for updates, fill in forms, update databases etc.
But luckily Google have made it fairly straight forward to block visits being counted from selected machines or networks.
1) I have a fixed “static” IP address!
If you have a static IP address then it is quite straight forward to block your PC from registering your visits you just need to setup a filter within Google Analytics.
login to your Google Analytics account.
Click Admin on the top right of the screen.
You will now see a list of your accounts, select the account you want to block.
Note this will block all machines that register as using the selected IP Address externally e.g. it will block all machines on your internal network.
2 ) I don’t have a fixed “static” IP address!
If you don’t have a static ip address you can download an add on from Google for your web browser, this will have the effect of blocking all your visits. Note this is a universal tool so it will block all your visits to all sites using Google Analytics and not just your own. It is available for Microsoft Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari and Opera.
Good post but I was wanting to know if you
could write a litte more on this subject? I’d be very grateful if you could elaborate a little bit more.
Cheers!
We have customers all over the world, but our onsite work is centred on the south east of the UK, specifically - London, Berkshire, Surrey, Hampshire,Guildford, Camberley, Woking, Windsor, Ascot & Sunningdale.
