AirCard 763 - DNS Manual Settings

Problem:

I cannot reconnect after setting up OpenDNS on my AirCard 763S.

 

What I did:

I connected to the AirCard device through my computer and selected DNS Mode - Manual instead of Auto.  It then offered me two IP address fields for changes in Manual mode.  I put in the two OpenDNS IP addresses.  I then accepted the changes to save them in the device which caused the AirCard to reset.  I noticed that the internet connection went down as expected and the it came back ON again.  No problem there.  So now the DNS filtering works fine as well.  I test the DNS operation using sites i had filtered out to confirm operation.  However, as a result of these changes, I can no longer connect to my AirCard to manage my settings now.

 

Resolve:

What must I do to restore an administartor connection to my AirCard to manage settings using my computer in the future?

 

Thanks, Dave
