After saving the changes, click on reset on the screen to reset the CWM. It will
probably take a few minutes before the CWM is initialized. A good way of
verifying that the CWM is initialized is by running CwmSetup and seeing
whether it can be detected.
Dynamic IP Setup
Most Internet connections will have a dynamic IP address, i.e. an IP
address assigned by the Internet Service Provider (ISP) will change from
time to time. For ADSL, some plans include a fixed IP address, usually
for companies running their own web server. For plans which involve
dynamic IP address, the IP address may not change for some time,
sometimes every few days. Cable modem connections usually involve
dynamic IP addresses. To access CWM from a remote browser on the
Internet, the IP address of the system must be known. For fixed IP
addresses, just type in the IP address or URL (and optionally port
number if not 443). For dynamic IP addresses, there are 3 methods of
getting the dynamic IP address of the CWM i.e. using Cytech
Technology’s Dynamic IP redirection system, using FTP to send the
current IP address to the user own web page or using a dynamic DNS
redirection service like: www.no-ip.com.
Use of other Dynamic IP
Redirection services is not within the scope of this manual.
Ensure that the Engineer Sign In Option is enabled (by pressing F0 on the
keypad). If the CWM has been reset, the Engineer Sign In Option has to be
enabled again to broadcast to the CWM.
To configure Dynamic IP setup, go to the CWM setup page, i.e.
https://(IPaddress):(PortNumber)/admin.htm
And select Dynamic IP Setup.
