WAX206 login after switching to bridge mode

WAX206 with firmware 1.0.4.0 allows bridge mode.
I set my WAX206 into bridge mode and it works. However now I want it to connect to a different WIFI network. Question is how do I login into the WAX206 again? I know the IP address and it won't go into the dashboard. Browser can find that IP address.

You could always start over and factory reset. Might be faster

I did reset and start over. That works. But was still curious why I couldn't login.

Found that using https://ip_address helps.
