Resetting Admin PC to Its Original IP Address
In Setting the Admin PC to the network number of the MultiAccess, you recorded the original IP address
of the administrator’s PC and then reset it to the IP address required to allow communication with the
MultiAccess unit. You may now set the IP address of the administrator’s PC back to its original value or
to any other value that will allow you to communicate with the MultiAccess at its new IP address.
