Note: If the WG602 cannot locate a DHCP server upon powering up, it will default to the IP address of 192.168.0.227. If you are not sure of the IP address of the WG602, restore the default IP address by pressing the Restore to Factory Settings button located on the WG602 back panel for at least five seconds. The WG602 will pass the IP address from the DHCP server to the associated station if the DHCP client is enabled.
