Hi,

I know that i'm digging an old thread but I have the similar question and I must manually set the IP address (so no DHCP).

Is there any way to do it ?

Thanks.

Hi Cédric:

var interfaces = Microsoft.SPOT.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces();
                foreach (var networkInterface in interfaces)
                {
                    Debug.Print(networkInterface.IsDhcpEnabled ? "Dhcp Enabled" : "Static Ip");
                    Debug.Print(networkInterface.IPAddress);
                    if (networkInterface.IsDhcpEnabled)
                    {
                        networkInterface.EnableStaticIP("192.168.0.9", "255.255.255.0", "192.168.0.1");
                    }
                }

This prints out whether you're already Dhcp Enabled or Static, and if Dhcp it sets to static.

You'd probably want to be a little cleverer around releasing leases if you want to be friendly to your dhcp server, but otherwise the above works.

Perfect. I also had to install the x64 driver for Windows from the wiki, and I had to erase twice as I started getting an error (attached) from the Amtel tool. Once I'd gone back to a fresh erase (3v3 to pin under 0) the problem went away. As a side note, to document my experience I also found that I was using the wrong MFDeploy (one I downloaded from Microsoft rather than the one C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft .NET Micro Framework\v4.2\Tools) and that couldn't see the Netduino to upload the firmware. Once everything was in line, driver, amtel tool, mfdeploy and the netduino bits, the flashing worked first time. Thanks for the support, Andy

Hi!

Just a question, how does Windows call it? If it still sees a "Netduino" in the device manager, it's not yet reset.

Ah-hah! It is Netduino, good intuition.

I must have not hit the erase properly (tentative worried fingers...) I'll retry.

Many thanks
Andy
