To use your web browser to view the switch status:

with a static IP address of 192.168.0.210 and 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.
Note: If you are unsure how to do this, visit kb.netgear.com and search for
Static IP address on computer.
2. Plug the switch into a power outlet, and then connect your computer to the switch using an
Ethernet cable.
3. Open a web browser, and enter http://192.168.0.239.
This is the default address of the switch.

The default password is password.
5. Click the Login button.

The DHCP server assigns the switch an IP address.
3. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
