and press Enter.  The  Voyager  web interface screen 
becomes available.  These screens will allow a number of

Using the LAN Port 

An Ethernet cable may connect to the waterproof jack on the external LAN port of the  MCD-
VOYAGER. Twist off the weather cap and connect a standard Ethernet cable. The MCD-VOYAGER is 
normally set to DHCP (Dynamic Routing), which means it will automatically issue an IP address to 
any computer that connects to it.  The LAN Port does provide PoE (Power Over Ethernet) for 
devices that require this feature. A standard Ethernet cable is all that is needed. A crossover cable 
is not required.
