+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 the TECH will need to sync with the HDHomeRun guide server on the internet:
+  - Access the web interface of the TECH unit //(for example, <nowiki>http://192.168.0.49</nowiki> )//
+  - Check the option **"Sync with guide server"**
+  - All other features of the TECH can still be used in this mode.
