Manual configuration – Internet access
1. Make TCP/IP settings on your PC, as described in the foregoing sec-
tion.
Do not forget to restart your PC after you have finished.
2. Using UPnP
If your Windows system supports UPnP, an icon for the DC-202 will ap-
pear in the system tray, notifying you that a new network device has
been found, and offering to create a new desktop shortcut to the
newly-discovered device.
• Unless you intend to change the IP Address of the DC-202, you can
accept the desktop shortcut.
• Whether you accept the desktop shortcut or not, you can always
find UPnP devices in My Network Places.
Double click the icon for the DC-202 (either on the Desktop, or in
My Network Places) to start the configuration. Proceed with step 4.
3. Start your web browser. In the Address field, enter the following:
192.168.0.1
If you can't connect
If the DC-202 does not respond, check the following:
• The DC-202 is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it
is powered ON. You can test the connection by using the
"Ping" command:
• Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.
• Enter the command:
ping 192.168.0.1
If no response is received, either the connection is not work-
ing, or your PC's IP address is not compatible with the DC-
202's IP Address. (See next item.)
• If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be
within the range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 to be compati-
ble with the DC-202's default IP Address of 192.168.0.1. Also,
the Network Mask must be set to 255.255.255.0. See Chapter
4 - PC Configuration for details on checking your PC's TCP/IP
settings.
• Ensure that your PC and the DC-202 are on the same network
segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
