IP Address

Modules VM201

Hi!

I´ve a problem connecting the VM201 to my PC. It shows the IP 192.168.0.100 but this is already used by a PC within the network. Can I change the IP of the VM201 in order to avoide changing PC´s address?

Thanks!

ciao,
Daniel

That is very strange since the VM201 is supposed to receive an IP address from your router (via DHCP). Your router will never give out the same IP address to two devices (if your network is configured properly).

Also check the firmware version of your VM201 (version >= 1342), and upgrade if necessary.

The firmware is the new one 1342.

I connected the device to my PC and typed the IP in my webbrowser but connection failed.
What can I do now?

Thanks!

You can’t just connect it to your computer, you need to connect it to the router that your pc is connected to.
