Step 3: Change the network settings of your PC by navigating to Control Panel Home → Network and Internet → Ethernet → Properties → Protocol Internet version4 (TCP/IPv4). Dependent on the location the ethernet cable is connected to, you may enter the IP address as shown in the picture below:
Location 1: 192.168.111.100
Location 2: 192.168.254.100
Step 4: After configuring the right network settings on your PC, enter the IP-address of the location in your preferred web browser:
