    I cannot quite get the dbox connected to the pc.

    When i test network settings on the dbox it says
    DNS Server:
    192.168.100.100 is unreachable.


    Does anyone know why this is and how it is fixed?

    Thanks

    IP address 192.168.0.100
    Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
    Broadcast 192.168.0.255
    Default Gateway 192.168.0.100
    DNS Server 192.168.0.2

    The PC Local Area Connection is set to
    IP Address 192.168.0.100
    Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
    Default Gateway 192.168.0.100
    Preferred DNS server 192.168.0.2
