wnce2001 with static IP address?
I am using the WNCE2001 to replace a wired connection that has failed. It will connect to my video security system. To access the system from my smartpnone, it requires a static IP address for the video system. I had it working when it was hard wired, with static IP and port forwarding from my router. Somehow the ethernet wiring has failed, and rather than debug that I thought to use WIFI to access the video system, but I can't figurre out how to set static IP in the adapter. Is this possible? I can see the adapter from my router, so the connectivity is there, but it uses a dynamic IP assigned by the router, which can change. Thanks for any help.
I would have expected that a static IP would be configured on the video system itself, not on the WNCE2001. Nonetheless, the WNCE2001 manual does have details for setting a static IP address on the adapter on page 13.
If you router supports DHCP address reservations, you can use that instead of a static IP address.
