How do I choose a unique IP address that matches my network?
For your home or small office, ensure that all devices on your
network are running. PING an IP address that you plan to assign to
the 7700. If you receive a "Request timed out", then you may use
that IP address. To ensure the IP address that you will assign the
7700 matches your network, review your "Current TCP/IP Settings"
that you had recorded earlier. See some examples below:
w
If your "IP Address" entry in "Current TCP/IP Settings" was
192.168.0.y, and your "Subnet Mask" was 255.255.255.0 then
use 192.168.0.x for your 7700's IP Address ("x" meaning any
number between 2-254 that you wish, as long as it passes the
"PING" test).
w
Other private IP ranges are 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 and
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255.

after 30 seconds of operation, check the network cable to
ensure a proper connection. When a proper connection is
met, the green indicator should immediately glow.
