2 Choose an IP address for Gaming.
Double-click the Zoom V3 icon on your desktop (or type 10.2.2.2 in your Web browser just the way you would normally type a web address) to get to the V3’s Zoom Configuration Manager. Click the Advanced Setup icon, then click LAN Settings. There you will see the starting and ending range of the V3’s dynamic (DHCP) LAN IP addresses. You need to choose an IP Address that is outside this range. Normally you should pick the next higher number. For example, if the range shown is 10.2.2.4 to 10.2.2.15, your Host IP Address should be the next IP address after 10.2.2.15, which would be 10.2.2.16. Unless you have changed the V3’s IP address settings, which is very unlikely, just use that number. Write down the number you choose for reference. The rest of the instructions will assume that you are using 10.2.2.16.
