 **CAUTION**

**In order to sign in and configure the GUI configuration screen, the IoT router and PC must belong to the same network. Please change the IP address of your PC to match the IoT router's eth1 IP address "192.168.0.254".**

- Please refer to your OS manual or other documentation for information on how to change the IP address.

### Connect PC and IoT router with LAN cable

Connect the PC to the IoT router.

 ****自動起動機能に関する注意事項****

- Since IoT routers are intended to operate 24 hours a day, they have the ability to automatically recover from a shutdown in the event of a failure.
- Therefore, if the IoT router is shut down using the method described in this section, but power is still supplied from the power connector, it will reboot.
- If you want to put the IoT router in a power-off state, shut it down and pull the power plug after the LEDs are in the power-off ready state (power LED lit red).
