Where the XXX.* part is the unique IP address you want to assign to the device and the 00- part is the MAC address. If setup didn’t work, try the following steps: Reboot your Chromecast. So from an Administrator Command Prompt enter:
To do this you’ll need the MAC address of the Home device which is usually found on a sticker on the box or the underside of the device. I don’t know what router you are using but if you know or you can find out what IP address range it uses for DHCP you could try to manually allocate the Home device with an IP address from the DHCP range using ARP. Think of it as squatters trying to move into an already occupied house, the original occupier (router) would not be very happy to say the least.ĭoes the Home App allow you to change the configuration as part of the setup process? For example if it had a LAN IP of 192.168.1.1 and the Home device was expecting to use the same address for itself then when the Home device came online a bun fight would ensue and cause an IP conflict as both devices were trying to use the same address. I suggested that they might be using the same IP as for me at least it would explain why the router ‘crashes’.
