Disklavier

Thanks all for your input. Yes Kevin is correct. My primary interest is
getting the wireless IP address to be in my home network IP subnet. If its
in the same subnet, then I can use the virtual PRC and still b able to go
other things on my network, like Internet or printing etc.  I have a hard
wired jack available for the regular LAN interface so that's already getting
an IP address from my switch.

I think the orignal question was about the piano's native wireless
interface.  It is not advisable to add that to your home network.  There is
nothing useful on that wireless network as it's sole purpose is to allow the
pocket remote (and/or) tablet to control the piano.

 

The network port that you want to get onto your home network (for Disklavier
Radio, DKVBrowser, etc.) is not wireless by default.  Many people do as Paul
suggested and attach that to a wireless gaming router, or something similar
to turn it into a wireless port.

I wondered the same thing when I got mine last year. As far as I could tell,
you cant change the IP of the piano, it is fixed. 

But there is a nice workaround and that is to get yourself a small router
that will translate that IP to any IP you want and then you can use
encryption as well. THe piano has no native encryption, if I recall.

I bought the Linksys WGA600N and it works without a problem and it's so
small you cant see it under the piano. This is a gaming router which is
usually the easiest to set up as they are made to translate IPs of gaming
units such as XBox.

I access the piano entirely through this router using DKVbrowser which is
pretty awesome. Just waiting for someone to develop an Iphone app now.
