IV-1. Configuring your IP address
For first time access to the URL http://edimax**.setup please ensure your
computer is set to use a dynamic IP address. This means your computer can
obtain an IP address automatically from a DHCP server. You can check if your
computer is set to use a dynamic IP address by following IV-1-1. How to check
that your computer uses a dynamic IP address.
** are the last two characters of the EW-7288APC’s MAC address.
The MAC address is displayed on the label on the bottom of the
EW-7288APC.
Static IP users can also temporarily modify your computer’s IP address to be
in the same IP address subnet e.g. 192.168.9.x (x = 3 – 254) as the
EW-7288APC in order to access http://edimax**.setup.
The EW-7288APC’s default IP address is 192.168.9.2.
The procedure for modifying your IP address varies across different operating
systems; please follow the guide appropriate for your operating system in
IV-1-2. How to modify the IP address of your computer.
Static IP users please make a note of your static IP before you
change it.
You can assign a new IP address to the device which is within the subnet of
your network during setup or using the browser based configuration interface
(refer to III-3-3. Basic Settings). Then you can access the URL
http://edimax**.setup in future without modifying your IP address.
Please remember to change your IP address back to its original
value after the device is properly configured.
