If you do not use the Sunny WebBox Assistant for initial start-up of the Sunny WebBox, you need to
make the network settings manually on the computer. To do so, first configure your computer based
on the Sunny WebBox network range on delivery.
Read the respective section for the operating system of your computer. If you use an operating system
that is not described, refer to the manual of your operating system to find out how to set the computer
to IP address 192.168.0.100 and the Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can then configure the
Sunny WebBox for a local network via the user interface (see page 31).
