Tips
• The ddd part of an IP address (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd.) can be set depending on the router range. See the router setup screen.
• When connecting several devices to the router, make sure the IP addresses do not overlap with each other.
Opening the router ports
First, refer to the instruction manual supplied with the router to make sure the router has the UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)
function.
On the router with the UPnP function, ports can be opened with the WIRES-X software.
On the router without the UPnP function, ports must be opened from the router setup screen.
