Installation and Setup 

WebRelay-10 Users Manual

2.3.2   Method 2: Assign a Temporary IP Address to Configuration Computer 

If the first option above is not used, you can use this option to communicate with WebRelay-10. By 
default, WebRelay-10 comes from the factory with an IP address of 192.168.1.2. Communications with 
WebRelay-10 may be established by assigning an IP address to the configuration computer that is on 
the same network as WebRelay-10 (for example, the configuration computer could be assigned to 
192.168.1.50)
The following example is for those running the Windows operating system:

1.

Windows XP – Open the control panel by clicking on the start menu
and then on Control Panel. 

Windows Vista/7 – Select the Windows Icon (Start Menu) and enter 

ncpa.cpl

 into the search bar and press Enter (Figure 2.3a).

Note: The control panel
shown (Figure 2.3b) is in
“Classic View.” If the
control panel is in
“Category View,” select
the “Classic View” option
before proceeding.

2.

Double click on
the icon labeled
Network
Connections. The
Network
Connections
window will open
(Figure 2.3c).
