  • “Network selection” - select “Manual input” or find the network name in the list
  • “Network name” - enter the name of the Wi-Fi access point if manual input was chosen. If you have selected a network name from the list, this field will be filled in automatically
  • “Password” - enter the password for the access point
  • “Encryption” - “WPA2-Personal”
  • “DHCP” - enable to automatically assign an IP address to the device. In this case, the assigned IP address will be displayed in the “Static IP” field

If you need to manually assign a static IP address to the device, uncheck the DHCP box. In the “Static IP” field, enter the IP address that you wish to assign to the device. Enter the subnet mask and addresses of DNS1 and DNS2 servers.
