Access and Setup
Default IP Address
The Epic 4’s default IP address is 192.168.0.1. This can be modified, however,
we recommend you retain the default IP address if possible
for hassle-free installation of other Luxul products.
n
NOTE:
In the event another device on your network shares the
192.168.0.1 address, you’ll need to temporarily reassign or
remove that device while you configure the Epic 4.
Connecting a Client Device
Connect a client device to one of the router’s LAN ports or to a switch that
is connected to a LAN port. The DHCP server on the router is configured
by default. If your client device is set to obtain an address automatically,
no further configuration is required and you may skip to the next step,
Logging In.
If your computer is not configured to obtain an address automatically,
you’ll need to configure it manually to connect to the router’s 192.168.0.x
network. To do so, set the IP address of your computer to
an address in the 192.168.0.X range, then set the Gateway/Router
address to 192.168.0.1 (the default IP address of the router), and
proceed with configuration.
Once you’re finished configuring the switch, you can return your comput-
er’s IP configuration to normal, typically “Obtain Automatically/DHCP.”

Hardware Operation
The front panel of the router features Power, System and USB LEDs, and port
status indicators for each of the router’s five built-in ports.
The front panel features five RJ-45 Ethernet ports: A single dedicated WAN
port, a dedicated LAN port, and three more ports which can
be configured as either WAN or LAN ports. Using the dedicated WAN port
along with all three shared WAN/LAN ports, the router can be connected
to up to four independent Internet connections simultaneously. The front
panel also features a recessed Reset button and a USB 3.0 port. Plug a USB flash
drive or hard drive into the USB port and configure the built-in file/DLNA server
to serve files to LAN-connected devices.
The rear panel features a power switch and power socket.
