Ethernet cable.
2. Press win+R on the keyboard (the "win" key is located between the
Ctrl and Alt buttons).
3. Enter CMD, a black window will pop up; enter ipconfig. Get the IP
address, subnet mask and default gateway assigned by the
router/modem.

the FileHub, because it remembers the last password. Every phone has a
different button to Forget Network. Then reconnect it with new
password

This is the Mac address of FileHub LAN itself. If your home router has a
Mac filtering, please add the FileHub MAC address to the white list of
your router. Or your FileHub will reject to connect to your home router.
When FileHub connects to your router wirelessly, please add the
listed MAC address to the white list. E.g. 00:1C:C2:11:6D:22
When FileHub connects to the router by the line, please add “1” to the
end number, then add the changed MAC address to the white list. E.g.
