# Configuring IP Addresses on PC/Laptop

## Some charger onboardings require you to

1. Ensure an Ethernet cable is directly connected to your device (image 1.a) or in the event of your device not possessing an Ethernet port, via an Ethernet to USB adapter (image 1.b).

2. Access your connection configuration by right-clicking on the icon in the bottom right corner of your desktop display.

8. Toggle the **IPv4 option on.**![](https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/UcEgRNEwzsNQhXBQfh3pRwO96YHR_EqL_pyMkrN6G39hGwLKl4zm8O7IJrnlENI5OgKO6vQKbD2sf1w9beh8o4s3wrhYB7vcU2u9h-9VKRTDNXrxavnfR6MbKl7F9oQze1c71KyeNtOfTRBmwrxFqqo)
9. Set the **IP address of your PC/Laptop to the same range as the charger**, being mindful to ensure the last set of numbers are different from the device you are connecting to in order to prevent an IP address conflict. The **IP address** of the example device we are connecting to ends in **206** so we have set our IP to **204** in order to ensure we are on the **same range**. (For example Charger IP: 192.168.88.206 = Laptop IP: 192.168.88.204)![](https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/KXLwcdk4YT_uTcqSDp12XLswCh8IpgWWiiM0FBoGgaZNn8SW-WMn16uJGeG2Es_U9v7D1vx8FGeTBwxVJ8anThiidJY0FeH6ZIqU2HLlMBP6DkJZJriTudkctI-IRc7POrkk-qUAJgsN1n7PNpdV1xY)
10. In the **Subnet mask** field, enter **255.255.255.0**. This will almost always remain unaltered.![](https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/z0fJ6SyZ0GwJ9djlPu-AfKnMSfXj-nvMcp8aQpJOZ1HMdK5qF_NtN6glAa0-mdm59ZGKvxheb2qGiZXxOHN_Lw2PkMO6VMjTZPoqpyXLS54L6t1NR3aamuUQvSH6fsFPhY7MIhIK8ousBNuWoiyseLE)
11. Press **Save** to complete the process. Your PC/Laptop should now be able to locate other devices/chargers/LMS systems within the same IP range.![](https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/DmuI9dQH5YwkvL8xlLE1Vl9jbNtYebj6MZWoUSC8bsLjbo2qIOgD4OIMd1jWjQnkbneJ86HinI-GmZThSKFVlZWbJNHJsV4tlHh8-buJSZPnEqSRN40IBZMj5Q38leel6hotVK5uFFezGOBclD-bqXE)
