Very Important Note:

Every unit is shipped with the default IP address of
192.168.0.100
First we will go through the process of changing this IP address to fit your own network configuration.
Note:
In some cases your computer might not be able to connect to this default IP address. In this
situation you either need to:
a) add this IP your computers routing table or
b) add a secondary IP address to the LAN card to allow access to the unit.
See below how to setup these.
Ensure the following items are available to you before starting:
- RJ45 CAT5 crossover cable with RJ45 male connection
- A PC with Ethernet card or LAN socket, logged in with Administrator rights
1)
Connect the unit via the Ethernet port of the unit to your computers LAN or Ethernet port with a
CAT5 crossover cable.
2)
Open a web browser and type the default IP address, hit enter.
You’ll be presented by the
Summary
page.
Go to the
System/Network
page to change the network settings (see below in this manual).
Once you have assigned the new IP address use the “ping” command to test the unit’s reply.
