    Hi
    
    Sorry for late reply.
    
    I refer the PDF file from the link provided but stuck at page 3 item no 8 which nothing pop up at the browser after I navigate to 192.168.10.250
    I'm sure I did everything exactly what the instruction asking me to do from page 1 but failed.
    
    Any suggestion please?
