=== (% style="color:blue" %)**Method 1**(%%): Connect via Ethernet with DHCP IP from the router ===

120

121

122

Connect the LG01v2 Ethernet port to your router and LG01v2 can obtain an IP address from your router. In the router's management portal, you should be able to find what IP address the router has assigned to the LG01v2.

123

124

You can also use this IP to connect.
