ping a gs105v4 gigabit switch

Hi guys,

First aplogies if theres already a step by step procedure on how to ping to this switch in this forum.  I only have one computer available to me at the moment and I would like to simply ping a gs105 neatgear gigabit switch using a network cable.  (OS windows 7)

Now I have already attempted the following things

1)  using wireshark to get the ip address

No  Time     Source            Destination       Protocol Length         Info

1 0.000000 192.168.137.1 239.255.255.250 SSDP 318 NOTIFY * HTTP/1.1 

However, using IP address 239.255.255.250 when i ping gets me a time out error

C:\>ping 239.255.255.250

Pinging 239.255.255.250 with 32 bytes of data
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.

Ping statistics for 239.255.255.250:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),

2)  executing an ipconfig at a command prompt

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.137.1
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :

I get this result when hook up an ethernet cable to the switch however i get the following output when i ping to 192.168.137.1

With ethernet cable connected

C:\>ping 192.168.137.1
