You can use the Command Prompt application on your computer to check your network settings.
- Search "CMD" from the Windows start menu.
- Select Command Prompt from the list of searched programs.
- Type in the command ipconfig and press enter
- You will receive a list of network adapters and the various settings for each.
Note, it is possible for a computer to have more than one network adapter. Often, laptops will have a WiFi adapter as well as an Ethernet adapter. Make sure that you are looking at the correct network adapter (for a direct decoder connection you should be using the Ethernet adapter).
