To use MeoBoot, obviously, you need to install a devices (HDD or USB Stick), to format it in EXT4 and to mount it.

LAN :
Use Interface – yes, otherways will not work
DHCP to no – Your router will not do DHCP, will use static IP address for your box – better then dynamic

Menu > Plugins > Manual Fan control to “ON” in standby. (I personally prefer Deep Standby which keeps box cooler, or total power off when no recordings are programmed.)
