Joey has no Internet connectivity via MOCA

[wah001]

I had 1 Hopper and 1 Joey installed today to replace a 722k.
I have Ethernet connected to the Hopper and am able to access the internet features. However the Joey is unable to use any feature that requires the internet.
The devices are paired and I can playback from the DVR and watch TV on the Joey.
The MOCA status on both devices shows as "Failed" and has a 169.x.x.x ip address.
If I run ethernet to the Joey I get all the missing features back.

Anyone else have this problem or have any clue on how to fix it?

Hmmm... According to Dish the Ethernet port on the Joey is not active as of now.... Did you try hard resetting both the Joey and Hopper?

[wah001]

Yes, Hard reset on both the Hopper and Joey. The Ethernet on the Joey works as thats the only way I can get it to access the internet.
When i plug it in the Ethernet drop down on the Network Setup page becomes blue and it gets an IP Address from my router.

Make sure your router has enough IP addresses to hand out one to the Joey.

Under the MoCA Network setup menu, hitting Reset Network will bring the entire MoCA network down and then up again. Reset Connection will just reset the Joey.

Thanks, I have plenty of DHCP addresses available. We tried resetting the connection and the network numerous times to no avail.

Don't worry too much about this. Right now, the Joeys are going to say they aren't connected to the Internet. That's not a problem, since the Hopper is, and the Hopper is what's serving the information to the Joeys.
