LiV comes configured with static IP address 192.168.1.111 for the wired interface and dynamic IP address for the wireless interface. We suggest you to follow this configuration guide. Later on, once LiV is up and running, you can modify the network settings according to your needs. 


TCP/IP and DNS settings (most recent software release)
These are the settings for the latest LiV Pi software release (no "/etc/network/interfaces" file anymore!). ​Connect LiV with an Ethernet cable to your home router. Find out your network settings on your computer and modify the content at the end of "/etc/dhcpcd.conf" so it matches your network. Make sure the subnet, the netmask and the gateway fields match those on your computer. Pick a free static IP address on your home network that LiV can use. (use "ping" command to make sure no one is using it).
