How does downloader work?

I have updated the firmware. I'm going to review the docs for my router to learn how to assign an IP to the GS911. If I understand you correctly, the bookmark is just a shortcut in the browser like any other bookmark except it points to the IP assigned to the GS911?

WayneC:
Correct, you can use an IP No in a bookmark, just as you would to get to the admin screen on a router

Xchallenge:
In the router you should look for something similar to "Client ip address reservation" or "Static Leases", possibly located somewhere near the "DHCP server" settings as it is a subsetting to that functionality.

You will need the MAC address of the GS-911wifi. It is usually entered in in this way 12:34:56:78:9A:BC or 12-34-56-78-9A-BC, check what is required by your router.

txtinman:
Thanks Xchallenge. That will narrow my search.

WayneC:
When you look around the router and find the IP reservation page most routers I encounter show the MAC address and the current IP No assigned to make it easy for you to then reserve an IP No.

Normally a device like the GS911 will have the MAC address on the label. GS911 does not and this has been brought to Hexcode's attention.
