    Yeah I've got a BT hub thing. Sorry if I'm not always correct about what things are called, I'm not that technically literate lol
  2. So like 192.168.1.1. I'm thinking if you've tried all that it's a RS problem, then.

    Yeah, fucking RS... One of the things I missed is that the address is fixed, so it doesn't sound like I can actually change it, unless you uncheck the "automatic" box?

    And yeah, that is my IP exactly...I'm guessing they're generic or something?


  4. Gonna try now mate - cheers for all this help and advice by the way, I can imagine thinking of solutions etc. may be as frustrating as it is for me at this end lol


    EDIT - Drew m'man, you're a genius, that link worked a treat!

    Some great stuff there, I agree.
  6. New question...
    You said I could use Foobar to sync the ipod, right? Is there a way to do it with firewire? I know there is a software for it, but anyway to make Foobar do it?

    I was having fun with the last question. I'd guess that it'd be the same way as USB. I haven't got Firewire, so I'm not exactly sure.


    I just made a webpage for giving you the correct IP address, not the way Windows does.

    Good night everyone, and have fun downloading!

    sorry for ruining it

    iTunes doesn't let you use FireWire...when I connect the iPod, it says on the iPod screen that you can't do file transfer with FireWire...but I did see a software that would let you do it...anyways, tough question I guess
  9. You would think, considering it has the same 30-pin plug connector.

    But it doesn't, and that software would probably work only with other models. For the new models, it makes pretty poor business sense for Apple because lots of people still use FireWire for doing other stuff, and it's almost twice as fast as USB2.

    For the sake of interest, USB3 is coming in early 2009 which won't have speeds of 480Mbps it will have rough speeds of 4800Gbps, so you can use USB3 devices (not USB2) at about ten times the speed of what you get now. That's why USB devices are coming down in price so quickly. But towards the end of this year and 2009, you'll see Wireless USB at the same speeds as USB2, so that's even better again.



    Back to the FireWire question...
