Wired Network Settings

Wired Network Settings

This page was machine-translated. The Japanese page is the official version.

These settings configure the wired networks used by a device.

Warning

Actcast does not support using two or more USB Ethernet adapters, or using a Soracom dongle together with a USB Ethernet adapter.

Configuration

You can configure settings such as static IP addresses for the onboard Ethernet interface (eth0) and a USB Ethernet adapter (eth1).

Use DHCP

The device uses the IP address assigned by the DHCP server on the network.

Configure manually

The device uses the specified IP address, router address, and DNS server addresses.

  • Static IP address: Specify the IP address and prefix to assign to the interface.
    • Example: 192.168.1.3/24
  • Router: Specify the address to add as the default route. The route priority is eth0, eth1, then Wi-Fi.
    • Example: 192.168.1.1
  • Name servers: Specify comma-separated addresses of the servers used for DNS resolution.
    • Example: 192.168.1.1, 8.8.8.8

Warning

If the device is connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi and you specify a router address on eth0 or eth1 that cannot reach the Internet, communication with Actcast may fail and the device will revert to its previous settings, as described below.

Behavior when disconnected

If a change to the wired network settings prevents communication with Actcast, the device automatically reverts to the previous settings that allowed communication. The reverted settings are not reflected on the website.

Use cases

Connect to the Internet over onboard Ethernet (eth0) with a specific IP address

Set onboard Ethernet (eth0) to Configure manually and specify a static IP address, router, and name servers.

Connect to the Internet over Wi-Fi and to a local network over onboard Ethernet (eth0)

Set onboard Ethernet (eth0) to Configure manually and specify only a static IP address.
