Question 2013-03 · older version

My Roku will not wake from screen saver when I switch to it. I have disabled the screen saver but does not help. Opens the remote but no control of the device. am using ip control by the way. Only way I get it to work is by going into edit mode and tapping the device in edit device screen. Should I assign a fixed address or is there another solution?
