+If you cannot access the TECH due to the IP address change, do the following to reset:
+Set a static IP on the computer in the 169.254.x.y range (e.g. 169.254.1.9) with a 255.255.0.0 subnet mask. The auto IP address for the TECH device will be randomly chosen within the 169.254.x.y range. Use the [[https://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/hdhomerun_tech_windows.exe|TECH Config GUI]] to locate it and reset the IP.

-When using the TECH3-CC or TECH4 and later, the consumer [[:app|HDHomeRun app]] can be used, allowing the TECH to behave as a consumer HDHomeRun unit. To enable this, you must access the web interface of the TECH unit by typing in the IP address into a web browser that is on the same local network, for each module you want to use in this mode. All other features of the TECH can still be used in this mode.
