MMG D:ONE has Gigabit Ethernet and dual-band WiFi. Either can carry NDI®, though Ethernet is strongly recommended for anything above a proxy stream.

Ethernet

DHCP by default. A static IP can be set under Ethernet — useful for a fixed install where a show controller needs to find the unit at a known address.

Discovery

The unit advertises itself over mDNS / Bonjour, so it shows up by name on the network without you knowing its address. Its serial is used as the identifier, so units never collide.

A factory reset returns Ethernet to DHCP — which is the way back if a static address is ever set wrong.

Hotspot

MMG D:ONE can broadcast its own WiFi network. This is what makes first-boot setup work with no infrastructure at all — see First boot.

Credentials are generated automatically, and the SSID defaults to the unit’s serial. You can change both.

Anything that joins the hotspot is taken straight to the interface, so there is no address to type.

Use the hotspot for setup and rescue, not for carrying video. Put the unit on Ethernet for live NDI®.

On a flat network, MMG D:ONE finds sources automatically. On a managed or enterprise network — where multicast discovery is often switched off — you can point it at exactly what it should see.

A source filter is the practical one for a large install: a screen in a foyer can be limited to only ever see the handful of feeds it should, so an operator can’t put the wrong thing on it.
