    (5)In the static address configuration interface, change the IP address, mask, gateway, broadcast address, and DNS address to the actual planned address of the mine. After editing, click "Save & Apply" in the lower right corner. After saving the application, you need to re-use the newly set static IP address to log in to the mining machine (otherwise the page will display loading until the loading fails).
