  • Page 53 Appendix i-Rec B104 (2) Check whether B104’s IP address is same with PC’s IP address or not. For example, if B104’s IP address is 211.53.133.181(Figure 1) and PC’s IP address is 211.53.133.73(Figure 2), connection will be failed. If network address part of IP address is same like ‘211.53.133’, packets that should be transmitted to PC can be transmitted to B104.
  • Page 54 B104 Appendix (3) In this case, you have only to change network address part of B104’s IP address after accessing B104 through local network. For example, you have to change 211.53.133.181 into 211.53.0.181. (4) After changing network value, reboot B104.
