!
Setup an internal fixed IP address and new password!
"
From the previous step, the IP address obtained from the router is a dynamic IP address, which means that it may be changed or occupied by other computer from time to time, there will be a chance you may be unable to connect to Telereef Controller with the same IP address later, so it is better to use a fixed IP address instead.
!
1. Check the DHCP range of the router, DHCP range means a range of IP address that the router assigns automatically; for example 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.50. Usually the DHCP range can be found inside router’s setup panel. Please refer to the router user manual for details.
2. Choose an IP address which is outside the DHCP range, for example 192.168.0.101
3. Go to System Settings page, change the field “IP address” with the chosen IP Address on step #2, change “Subnet Mask if necessary, default is 255.255.255.0, change the “Gateway” to router’s LAN IP address if it is not correct.
4. Change the “User Name” to the login name you preferred and change the “Password” to a new password.
5. Push “Save” button to save the settings.
!
If you forgot the password or a wrong IP address has been used then you may not able to connect to Telereef Controller any more, the only way to fix it is perform a system reset
