How to check your network settings
NOTE: To configure the MySafe COMM Unit you need a router (AP) that allows devices to connect to the network using WI-FI (mobile phone, tablet) and at the same time an Ethernet port (COMM Unit MySafe)
Case 1 – use of a portable Router (AP) dedicated to MySafe system
In the menu of the router, set the network values as follow
- Gateway: 192.168.1.1
- Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
- DHCP range: 192.168.1.2 – 170
This way the default network settings of MySafe (192.168.1.254) never need to be change
Case 2 – local area network (LAN/WLAN)
- Set COMM Unit to DHCP (see technical manual page 23)
- Connect mobile phone to local network (WIFI)
- Use IP scanning application (download free from Apple store/Google play)
- Connect the safe/COMM unit with LAN cable to local network
- Check on IP scanner the assigned IP address for MySafe (the new device) in the network
- Enter IP-address shown in the scanner app into the MySafe app
