Apparently "static" is not a defined value for BOOTPRO, and when an undefined term is used, it defaults to "none". One of the little bits of highly useful information that I've discovered in my search for a connection :-)

Hmm, I've been using Fedora for years and I never noticed this had changed. My ifcfg files for statically-defined interfaces do indeed have BOOTPROTO=none, and they work.

You might need to specify the NETMASK. In my experience, the default isn't always what you'd expect.

Are you sure that the tuner is really on the net? Those devices normally get their IP address via DHCP, so you would need to be running a DHCP server on this subnet in order for it to work.
