Initial Connect to a Meteobridge PRO

As the Meteobridge PRO has a display it is rather simple to get connected to it. You can reach out to it in two styles.

  • cabled: When you started the unit first time with a LAN cable connected, it will try to receive an IP address via DHCP from your router. If this is successful the IP will displayed on the front panel. In this case you simply direct your browser to this IP and you can start setting up the unit.
  • WiFi: When you started the unit first time without cable connection it comes up as a WiFi access point to allow you easy login with your smartphone, tablet or laptop. SSID to look for with your mobile device is given on the front panel of the Meteobridge PRO. Once you successfully directed your mobile device to connect to this temporary SSID all you have to do is to direct the browser on your device to IP 192.168.1.1. There you find the network configuration page of Meteobridge PRO. Please define network settings Meteobridge should use from now on and press „save and apply and reboot“. Having done this, Meteobridge pro will reboot and will try to connect with the given network credentials. If this works fine, IP of the unit will be displayed on front panel and fast blinking red LED will switch to steady on after a while. Now you are ready to login with your browser to the displayed IP and can start setting up the unit.
