wireless router.
1. Access the media connector's browser-based utility

matches the name of your wireless network

The media connector's IP address needs to be changed.
If the media connector is connected to a network with a DHCP server (usually
the network router), then the media connector will obtain its IP address from
the DHCP server If there is no DHCP server, then the media connector will use
its default, static IP address, 10.100.1.1
If you want the media connector to always use a static IP address, then follow
these instructions:
1. Access the media connector's browser-based utility
2. Click the Setup tab, then open the Basic Setup page
3. From the Network Setup drop-down menu, select Static IP
4. Complete the Static IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway fields
5. Click Save Settings
