Seeking a way to find the IP address of this cable box Model D12 100

Check with the company, but I'm pretty sure they won't give it to you or tell you how to connect to it.

Not sure if it actually has one. Since my post I have seen models with a lan port built in. Found an app that can make a mobile device into a remote just by knowing the IP address.

If you do a reset and watch the screens, it may go though the boot-up process and show you some info. If it has an IP, it would be used for internal network use by the company. The remote you are talking about may be for computer use.

Numerically by model, ALL models with a model number less than 20 (D12, R16, D10, H10, Etc) DO NOT support networking, there is no ip address on a D12

On models equal to or higher than 20, under settings, networking advanced setup, the IP is in the top most set of boxes, or you can go ot settings, more system info, and page down to networking and the IP address is listed there.
