If a “Static” IP address was assigned to the GEM, then this will be the GEM’s IP address and this section

The simplest method of determining the GEM’s IP address on the network is to use the “GEM Network
Utility” software (version 4.2 or higher). Other methods may be used such as:
Accessing the router’s configuration page and reviewing all connected device IP addresses
Using software utility such as “Netscan” (free downloadable)
Discovery Using GEM Network Utility
