Installation guide

Connecting a PC to BeoLink Gateway
Basic connections
As the BeoLink Gateway contains a web-based user interface a PC must be connected to be able to access the
user interface. The user interface is used to setup and configure BeoLink Gateway.
The PC and BeoLink Gateway can be connected in two ways:
- BeoLink Gateway connected to a LAN.
If a router is available it is recommended to connect the BeoLink Gateway and the PC via the router. This
makes it possible to update the BeoLink Gateway automatically via the Internet.
- The PC directly to BeoLink Gateway.
BeoLink Gateway can - for initial setup and SW update - be connected directly to a PC with an Ethernet
cable from the Network Link socket to the network port on the PC. It can be necessary - depending on the
PC - to use a ‘cross-over’ Ethernet cable.
To use ‘direct’ Ethernet cable the BLGW must be setup with a static IP-address.
Note!
DHCP is default enabled from the factory.
If a fixed IP-address is selected the default IP-address of BeoLink Gateway is 192.168.1.10
Depending on the actual network settings it may be necessary to change the IP-address to fit the network
range.
