Description

The system should have a default network configuration that should be accessible via wired eth. That way the device can be configured remotely via the web interface.

There doesn't need to be a default setting. All interfaces can be disabled. The Media Server and Media Player offer a UI that allows configuration easily enough.

However, the displayed IP address should be blank if the interface is not enabled. I believe the address displayed is bogus if the interface is not enabled. The address is shown in the bottom left of the bui-network-config UI.

Updates were added to showIPInStatusBar() to (hopefully) better identify if the selected interface is available and running before attempting to get its IP address. Also added more calls to showIPInStatusBar() so when changes are initiated by the program the IP is correctly updated to reflect the changes.

This may not be completely correct but its better than it was.

Pushing back to the end of the 0.10 cycle to give me time to test it more.

This appears to be working fine now. The correct IP address is shown for enabled interfaces and nothing is shown for disabled interfaces.

Closing issue.
