Hello Random Google Search II: The Sequel

This is a message for folks who own the Panasonic DMP-BDT320 Blu-Ray player (because my most popular post so far has been a fix for a random Firefox install bug and I guess the search terms bring it right to the top of the list).

You might ask yourself, why does this auto-configuration not work on my network?

Well, I can't explain that (maybe the firmware update I just installed will fix it), but I can tell you the default gateway error you're getting means the best solution is manually setting the IP address and fixing the subnet mask and default gateway in the player preferences. Just check wikipedia if you don't know what those terms means. For me, the default gateway was 192.168.1.1 (true for most home routers).

...and you're very welcome!

If your macbook pro's keyboard and trackpad stop working randomly, then

put a piece of tape on it under the hood. No, seriously. Fixing this was a zen moment and a half. Random internet person with external keyboard and mouse hooked up to laptop out of spite, this post is for you.
