I am able to get the configuration at 192.168.0.254 when direct connected to my PC.

Using the quick setup, I selected Access Point mode and I setup the wifi passcode. I also updated the timezone.

I tried changing the IP to 'Dynamic', saving / applying, and then rebooting the device and putting it on my home network for testing. All 3 lights show on the device. I can see the wifi network on my phone, but after putting in the password, it reports 'No Internet Access'. Furthermore, I don't see that it was leased an IP from my router, and so I don't see a way to configure it.

Since, I left the fall back IP in place, I was able to direct connect to my PC again. I changed the network configuration to static IP, and gave it a static IP on my local home network outside of my routers DHCP range. I saved/applied and then placed the device back on my network again, assuming I would be able to locate it at the static IP. The wifi still has 'No Internet Access', and the device is not found at the static IP is set....

If I direct connect my PC to the lan port on the POE adapter again, I am able to administer once again on the static IP.

What am I doing wrong?  Why isn't the device contactable on my local network with either the dynamic or a static IP set to my local subnet?

Please help!

I am so glad I didn't take this device to the field first without getting it configured. I have spent 2 hrs messing around with this - it's 19 F outside, and it would have been painful as hell doing this troubleshooting outside :) !!

Ty,
