IP Address: anything not already in use, in the format 192.168.0.x (where x is between 2 and 254)

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Default gateway: 192.168.0.1

Note however that if DHCP from the Hub isn't working then you've probably got other problems.

If its happening when connected via ethernet this suggests the cable isnt working or it isnt connecting properly.

Is the cable you are using fully gigabit compliant with all 4 pairs wired up as Sky hubs can be very picky.
