4.2 Setting a New IP Address over the Network
Besides using the iConnect software, you may use the Receiver’s default IP address to
access it and assign a new IP address to it.
The Receiver is shipped with a default IP address of
192.168.1.200
and Subnet Mask of
255.255.255.0
. You can configure your PC’s Network connection with an IP address that
is in the same range as the Receiver’s IP address (
192.168.1.x
) and connect to the
Receiver using a crossover network cable between your PC and the Receiver.
With this completed, you can go to the DOS-Prompt and ping
192.168.1.200
. If you
receive responses back (
Figure 4.1
), you can go to the Web browser and type in
http://192.168.1.200
and it will take you to the Wireless System’ Home Page.
Select
, button, you’ll be asked for the password. You should be on the
Access Control page were you can simply type in the desired Static IP address, and click
Save.
For more details about the "Access Control" page refer to
Section 4.3.9.
Figure 4.4 Access Control
For the IP address to take effect, the Receiver needs to be turned OFF and ON using the
"Network Reset" button. Pressing the physical button marked "RESET" on the Receiver
does the same thing.
You can now connect the Receiver to an Ethernet hub using a straight through cable,
power it up, and follow the ping routine mentioned in the previous section.
