## <mark style="color:blue;">Hardware Installation</mark>

### Place on a Flat Surface

The EXT1106 already comes with footpads on the underside. These footpads help secure and protect it from vibration and shock when stacking.

### Wall Mount

1. Determine where the **Switch Extender** will be placed and mark the location on the surface for the two mounting holes. Use the appropriate drill bit to drill two 8.1mm diagram and 26mm-deep holes on the marks.
2. Screw the **Anchors** into the holes until they are flush with the wall; screw the included **Screws** into the Anchors but leave the screw head sticking out so you can hang the **Switch Extender** on it.

2. Under your web browser, enter the URL:  <mark style="color:blue;">**<http://192.168.0.239>**</mark> to access the Switch's local web interface.&#x20;
3. You can review the device status after logging into the Switch with the default admin account/password <mark style="background-color:green;">(admin/password).</mark>
4. Check the information on the **Dashboard** and take action if necessary.

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. &#x20;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.
