Disklavier

Steve,

The virtual PRC works via the hard wired jack, not the wireless interface.  If your piano is already connected to the internet, then the virutal PRC should work as well.

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.
