3.3.2 Using the Ethernet cable

Connect the combined USB/Ethernet cable shown in Section 2.4.1 between a LAN network and the connector labelled ‘ETH USB‘ on the rear panel of the AsteRx-U indicated in

Figure 3-7.

Step 2: Open a web browser and connect to the AsteRx-U

By default, the AsteRx-U has a DHCP address ‘http://Asterx-U-xxxxxxx’, where xxxxxxx are the 7 digits of the AsteRx-U serial number. The serial number can be found on a sticker on the corner of the outer casing of the receiver. Figure 3-8 shows a screenshot of an Ethernet connection to a receiver with serial number 3011881 using ‘ http://asterx-u-3011881 ’.
