Troubleshooting

If your Switch cannot be managed by the EnGenius Cloud Platform, there might be a problem with connecting to EnGenius Cloud.

To troubleshoot the connection issue, you may log in to the Switch Local Web page:

  1. Make sure that your computer is on the same subnet with the switch (192.168.0.0/24) and directly connect to it with an RJ-45 cable.

  2. Under your web browser, enter the URL: http://192.168.0.239 to access the Switch's local web interface.

  3. You can review the device status after logging into the Switch with the default admin account/password (admin/password).

  4. Check the information on the Dashboard and take action if necessary.

Change IP Assignment Settings

By default, the EnGenius Cloud Switch (ECS series) is assigned an IP address dynamically by the DHCP server. If you encounter issues with IP address assignment, please double-check the IP setting, including IP address, subnet mask, gateway, DNS, and management VLAN. If the issue still exists, you may change your IP assignment from "DHCP " to "Static" via the following procedure.

  1. Go to the Configure> System Settings> IP Address Settings section.

  2. Change Configuration setting to "Static".

  3. Configure the IP address, gateway, subnet mask, and DNS settings.

  4. Reconnect this Switch to the LAN network and try again
